Couldn't load pickup availability
Fascinated by the dignified camellia
A cute small plate in the shape of a palm-sized camellia. 
The soft, fluttery contours are the result of the gentle handiwork of craftsmen. The pattern is painted in gold, green, and red, giving it a gorgeous atmosphere. 
The garden of the workshop is surrounded by seasonal flowers, and the model for the design is a camellia that blooms in spring. It embodies Zoho Kiln's warm feelings of valuing the connection with nature.
Small but hard working
Pickles, chopstick rests, and leftover side dishes. It's a very convenient size when you want to serve just a few side dishes. 
At tea time, it would be nice to top it with coffee sugar or cookies and add it to the cup. The size makes it easy to use, so it's a good idea to keep several for your family or for guests.

Things you should know before purchasing
What creates the expression of a pottery is things that cannot be seen in mass-produced items, such as spots, scratches, unevenness in the glaze, shading, and bending of the shape. The charm of handmade pottery is that it may have pinholes, intrusions, distortions, etc., and is not perfectly arranged, but each one is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two are exactly the same. Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as these are the unique characteristics of handmade pottery. 【Individual difference】 
Because each piece is handmade, there are individual differences in shape, size, thickness, and pattern. [Uneven color/uneven baking] 
Since the glaze is applied by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly. During firing, the temperature varies depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other notes] 
〇There may be some areas where the glaze has peeled off. 〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery and artist are inspected again and delivered to the customer. ■For more information, please see here. Characteristics of items you should understand when purchasing
