This large-sized serving bowl features one of the signature motifs of Tobe ware. The graceful arabesque design is brought to life by the warmth of its dynamic hand-painted brushstrokes, inspired by nature and the striking contrast of indigo on porcelain white. The extended pattern inside the bowl creates a rich and harmonious design.
Renowned for its durability and ease of use, Tobe ware is widely used in restaurants to serve Japanese noodles. Famous for its blue-tinged porcelain and tasteful charm, Tobe ware appeals to those seeking a classic and timeless look.
The bowl is perfect for serving simmered nimono or hearty salads. With its depth, it can also be used for gyudon, oyakodon, and other donburi dishes as well as noodle dishes like udon or soba.

Maker / Brand
Baizan Kiln, the oldest existing kiln in Tobe City, Ehime Prefecture, Japan, is cherished for its creations featuring simple yet dynamic brushstrokes and a sturdy, robust form. Its warm white porcelain pieces are adorned with deep indigo and colorful patterns, and their thick, solid shapes evoke a sense of unpretentious, wholesome beauty. In 1976, Baizan Kiln was officially recognized as a traditional craft maker by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry.
Origin
Tobe ware is porcelain produced in the Tobe region of Ehime Prefecture, located in the northwest of Shikoku Island. The white porcelain, with its beautiful, slightly bluish hue from the iron content, continues to be highly valued and loved. Tobe ware maintains a strong respect for traditional handicraft techniques, even amidst modernization.
