This rectangular plate features simple blue tokusa stripes, shaded with delicate hand-painting. Tokusa, inspired by the horsetail plant, symbolizes longevity in Japanese culture. The hand-painted indigo stripes along the edge add a subtle, elegant touch.
The traditional and refreshing blue pattern, combined with the smooth texture of porcelain, makes every dish look more appetizing. 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.

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 by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry.
