Rice Bowls
Rice bowls are indispensable tableware for the Japanese dining table. Since they are used so often for Japanese food, many people are particular about them. It is important to choose one that is not only beautiful to look at, but is also the right size for your hand and easy to hold.
We recommend that you get a dedicated rice bowl for each member of your family. It's also a good idea to have a few available for different occasions, in varying colors and patterns that match the season and table setting.

Black
Black conveys a sense of sophistication, formality, and stylishness. In Japan, this is reflected in the use of kuro, a deep black color traditionally worn by priests and monks during ceremonies. Kuro not only symbolizes sanctity and solemnity but also projects an air of quiet elegance.
Black tableware's deep, rich tones and matte or glossy finishes bring a bold and elegant touch to any setting, elevating table design with a modern, sleek allure and fostering an ambiance of depth and a sense of ritual.
