Oribe Kobachi Small Bowl
Estimated Shipping Widget will be displayed here!
Finished with a deep, lustrous Oribe glaze, this hand-shaped kobachi small bowl reflects the quiet sophistication of Japanese pottery while remaining perfectly suited for everyday use.
A base coat of ki-Seto glaze—a pale yellow glaze unique to Mino ware—is first applied, followed by layers of Oribe glaze brushed by hand, creating soft gradations of green, amber, and blue that recall natural landscapes. The mogusa clay, known for its subtle tone and texture, responds uniquely to the fire, allowing tranquil beauty to emerge through both process and form. Areas where the glaze is thinner reveal the clay beneath for a pleasing textural contrast.
Perfectly sized for small portions, it is ideal for side dishes, pickles, or delicate desserts. Its earthy color palette complements any table setting, whether used alone or combined with other Oribe pieces for a cohesive presentation. The elegant box makes it a lovely gift option.

Oribe
Oribe is a distinctive style of Japanese ceramics that emerged in the early 17th century within the Mino tradition. Named after the tea master Furuta Oribe, it is known for its free-spirited shapes and expressive surface patterns that convey movement and individuality. Artisans often shape the clay by hand, subtly adjusting the rim or contour to embody this aesthetic before firing. Asymmetry, bold lines, and a deep copper-green glaze reveal rhythm within its organic silhouette.
Petits bols Kobachi
KobachiLes kobachi, littéralement « petits bols » en japonais, sont conçus pour servir entrées et accompagnements.

Intégrer un ou plusieurs kobachi à une table et disposer des plats de tailles et de couleurs différentes confère à votre repas une atmosphère japonaise authentique.
Cette catégorie comprend les bols dont le diamètre est inférieur à 12, 9 cm (5, 1 po) .
