Hachi-Kutani Plover Hexagonal Sauce Plate

This small porcelain plate has auspicious design patterns: "Nami Chidori," plovers and waves, and "Karakusa," an arabesque design.

Nami Chidori, a combination of a plover and a wave, means "to overcome rough seas together."

Arabesque designs are considered a symbol of longevity and prosperity of offsprings, as arabesque, the vine, extends its stems in all directions.

While Kutani ware is loved for its vibrant colors, the hachi-kutani series features sauce plates all in white. They are made at Seikou Kiln. Seikou Kiln researched Japanese overglaze paint of Kutani ware for years. Thick overglaze paint with traditional Japanese paints is the same quality as hand paint and brings out a sense of luxury. The porcelain is painted with an elegant traditional pattern, inspired by the snow of Hakusan (Mt. Hakusan), and is trimmed with a rusted finish. 

This small plate can be used for sauce, condiments, pickles, jam, cookies and other small items such as accessories. It has a beautiful and simple design that matches any item. There are eight different patterns in total, so you can choose your favorite one or use different patterns with your family.
