Arabesque Rectangle Dinner Plate

This rectangular dinner plate features a hand-painted arabesque pattern, one of the representative motifs of Tobe ware. The bold indigo design adds an elegant touch.

The traditional yet refreshing blue pattern, combined with the smooth texture of porcelain, enhances the appeal of every dish. It works beautifully as a sushi plate, sashimi plate, tempura plate, or grilled fish plate—and is equally suited for serving appetizers. Designed for durability, it’s ideal for long-term use.

Baizan Kiln

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.

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.
