Description

This quince-shaped dinner plate, with its smooth, flowing lines, features the stunning orchid cactus, also known as the epiphyllum. The graceful matte celadon texture of this plate conveys tenderness the moment you touch it, enhanced by a moist and gentle surface finish.

The layered pure white petals of the epiphyllum are exquisitely displayed on the plate, with intricate detailing of the stamens. Both the petals and stamens are rendered three-dimensional, as if a real orchid cactus is unfolding on the plate, capturing its fleeting beauty. This design masterfully reflects the elusive charm of the flower, admired only under the cloak of night.

Perfect for serving sashimi or other main dishes, this plate combines artistic elegance with practicality, making it an eye-catching addition to any table setting.

Celadon

Celadon porcelain originated in China and was introduced to Japan by the 10th century. Among the aristocratic classes at that time, celadon wares from China were regarded as the finest imported goods. They adored its mysterious blue and named it "secret-color."

Production of celadon ware began in the Hizen region, the northwestern part of present Kyushu in the early Edo period (1603 CE - 1868 CE), and the technique was later passed on to Kyoto and nearby areas. In 1957, the craft technology was designated a national intangible cultural asset. Celadon continues to be cherished and crafted by many potters and artisans today.
