A small accent on the dining table
The Chinese character for ``Fuku'' is a bellflower plate with an auspicious atmosphere. 
A pattern drawn in dark red surrounds the character ``Fortune'' drawn in dyed dyeing. When I put it on the table, I get excited because I think something good will happen to it. 
The fine incisions all over the plate and the slowly seeping glaze add depth of flavor. It is perfect for everyday use as well as for celebrations such as birthdays and longevity.

Arita ware
Arita ware is porcelain manufactured in Arita Town, Saga Prefecture, and its surrounding areas. It is said to be the first porcelain made in Japan, and has been widely used as tableware and crafts for over 400 years. Arita ware has a strong image of transparent white porcelain and decoration, but there are also many products that use brightly colored glazes, giving a rich variety of colors to your dining table.
