Arita Porcelain Lab Japan Blue Flower and Bird Kobachi Bowl

Hundreds of years of skill and technique are carefully crafted in this hand-size small bowl.

This is an item from the Arita Porcelain Lab's signature series called Japan Blue.

While preserving the traditional style of Arita Ware, the blue tones are arranged in a modern way, and each piece is individually brushed by craftsmen to create an incomparable elegance. Many of the designs are arranged with traditional auspicious designs, making the tableware suitable for the modern dining scene.

The sides of the bowl are shaped like the petals of a flower giving the bowl an elegant look. Items with distinctive curves such as this bowl are made by first making a base by pressure casting and then carved by skilled craftsman to give the final refined touch.

The inside is decorated with traditional Japanese motifs. The bamboos represent strength, the Japanese pampas grass represent vitality and the peonies are meant to cast off evil spirits. This auspicious pattern is frequently seen on Arita ware and is given a contemporary  makeover with the different shades of blue and silver. 

This bowl would look great on a smooth blue dining cloth. You can use it to plate Japanese style appetizers or a small salad. Upgrade a scoop of vanilla ice cream using this delicately designed bowl for dessert.  

Arita Porcelain Lab is a brand/company revived by the seventh generation of Yazaemon as a successor to the long-established Arita porcelain kiln established in 1804. To make Arita porcelain a global brand, the company has been working to create modern Arita porcelain that is in tune with modern lifestyles while incorporating more than 200 years of traditions.
