Japan Blue Old Imari Floral Pattern Two Tiers Jubako Bento Box

This two-tiered food box is a stackable container used for serving a bento-like meal. The design on the side and lid is the traditional old Imari floral pattern and is given a modern remake with different shades of vivid blue. 

Each container is deep enough to hold rice and other side dishes. If you want to make a bento with generous portions, your could put rice in one container and the side dishes in the other. 

You could also serve small confectionaries or dry nuts and snacks for a casual tea gathering in this food box. The modernized floral pattern would go well with any kind of tea cups. 

With its beautiful patterns painted all around the food box, this would be a nice item to set on a table as a home decor item as well. 

Arita Porcelain Lab

The seventh generation Yazaemon describes his vision for Arita Porcelain Lab as "to modernize Arita Ware, the luxury Japanese porcelain culture, and to convey it to the world." Arita Porcelain Lab's tableware retains the aesthetic of "elegance" that Japanese people have valued since ancient times, and adds a stylish appearance to suit modern living spaces.

The colors of the tableware have been carefully selected, with new colors developed for traditional patterns and designs that freely combine traditional patterns to suit modern interiors.  They have developed the original glaze through countless prototypes.

Arita Porcelain Lab also designed perfume bottles made of Arita Ware at the request of Guerlain, a French perfume and cosmetics maker, and collaborated with Laduree, a famous confectionery store, to produce tea and Arita Ware. The company is also deepening its ties overseas, with its tableware being used in a restaurant in the Mandarin Hotel (Paris, France).

Crafted in the historic town of Arita, located in Saga Prefecture, Arita ware stands as the most venerable porcelain production hub in the annals of Japanese history. Characterized by its ethereal translucent white porcelain adorned with vibrant paintings, it has profoundly influenced the porcelain craft across Europe.

Within Japan, Arita ware is held in high esteem as a prestigious brand, with the town of Arita acknowledged as a quintessential porcelain production area.
