Baizan Kiln Gosu and Red Line Tobe Donburi Bowl S
This donburi bowl with alternating lines in blue and red is crafted by Baizan Kiln, a renowned producer of Tobe ware. It boasts a beautifully balanced design on robust white porcelain, perfect for everyday meals. Gosu is the pigment used to adorn the porcelain surface with its distinctive blue thick lines. The red accents enhance the overall impression.
These elegantly simple blue patterns are painted by hand using a special technique called tsuketate. This method involves drawing each design in a single brushstroke without outlines, showcasing the dynamic flow of each stroke.
Resistant to breakage, this bowl features a substantial, sturdy build and is suitable for both microwave and dishwasher use. Its excellent heat retention keeps food warm, making it ideal for serving ramen, udon, and soba. To fully enjoy the flavors and aroma of the soup, the rims are slightly flared outward.
At Baizan Kiln, every process from wheel throwing to painting is meticulously done by hand, and all original patterns are inspired by nature. They offer a variety of designs for donburi bowls, inviting you to select one that resonates with your personal taste.
