Kobachi Small Bowls

Kobachi, literally “small bowls” in Japanese, are designed for serving appetizers and side dishes. Deeper than a small plate but smaller than a main course or ramen bowl, kobachi are just the right size for light stews and simmered vegetables. Incorporating one or several kobachi bowls into a table setting and arranging dishes of different sizes and colors lends your meal an authentic Japanese atmosphere. 

This category includes bowls with diameters under 12.9 cm (5.1 in).

Cool Off With Shades of Blue

Bring Japanese hues into your space this summer with tableware and decor in shades of blue. Featuring minimalist geometric patterns, modern styles, and intricately painted designs, the items in this collection are sure to introduce a little extra zing to your late-summer table.

One of the most classic Japanese blues is cobalt: a rich, bold color that works as well as a statement piece as it does as a backdrop for food or a canvas for detail. You will often find cobalt blues contrasted with pure white, a timeless pairing known in Japanese as sometsuke. Another favorite is navy blue, a sophisticated color seen throughout Japanese art. Adding navy is a great way to ground a table. Last but not least is mizu-iro, literally “water blue,” a pale aqua that suggests the refreshing coolness of the ocean.

So, embrace the rich palette of blue and rejuvenate your final weeks of summer.
