This mokko-shaped small bowl features a modern interpretation of the traditional classic patterns of old Imari. Mokko is the name for a round squarish shape and is considered an auspicious shape which represents family prosperity.
"Aka" means red and "dami" is the name for the technique where the artist first outlines the area to be painted with a thin brush and then fills in the remaining space with a larger brush with different shades of the same color. This technique can only be done beautifully by a highly skilled artisan.
The center of the bowl is designed with plants painted in an elegant blue color. And the sides of the bowl are decorated with festive and gorgeous patterns high-lighted with gold paint.
This bowl can be used to serve dishes with a sauce or a soup. It can also be used to serve a small salad or to plate cooked vegetables like edamame. A versatile yet very elegant item that will brighten up your table.

Kinrande
Introducing a tableware collection inspired by Kinrande style, which itself draws inspiration from old Imari ware. The Kinrande style of Imari ware gained immense popularity as export items between the 18th and 19th centuries. Large vases and plate sets were crafted especially for European royalty and nobility, and these pieces were highly valued as elegant and beautiful additions to their palaces.
The collection features luxurious gold accents, deep shades of red, and elegant blues. Many designs are densely packed with intricate patterns set within balanced, symmetrical compositions. Floral motifs, particularly those of peonies and chrysanthemums, frequently appear. Additionally, mythical creatures like dragons and phoenixes are prominently depicted, symbolizing power and rebirth, respectively, and adding an auspicious touch to these extravagant ceramics.
Kobachi Small Bowls
Kobachi, literally “small bowls” in Japanese, are designed for serving appetizers and side dishes. Deeper than a small plate but smaller than a main course or ramen bowl, kobachi are just the right size for light stews and simmered vegetables. Incorporating one or several kobachi bowls into a table setting and arranging dishes of different sizes and colors lends your meal an authentic Japanese atmosphere.
This category includes bowls with diameters under 12.9 cm (5.1 in).
