Grains Luka Round Dinner Plate 8.3 in

Measuring 21 cm (8.3 in), it is just the right size for a dinner plate for one person. It can also be used for salads and appetizers to be shared by a small number of people.

The rustic coloring often seen in Japanese tableware has been incorporated into a modern design. The brown base is covered with a light gray glaze, giving it a beige tone. The glossy finish gives the bowls an elegant presence without being too plain.

Its deep shape makes it suitable for dishes with soupy side dishes or sauces. It is easy to match with any dishes as well as Japanese cuisine.

The Granis series is also available in other sizes.

MERU

The contemporary Mino ware brand MERU, produced by Marukuni Ito in 2022, is the finest tableware, a crystallization of the joy of handicraft and the pride of craftsmanship, which makes the most of the skills and characteristics of each Mino ware craftsman. Marukuni Ito is a ceramics wholesaler that has supported the Mino ware market share for over 70 years. 

Crafted in the Tono region of Gifu Prefecture, Mino ware is celebrated for its rich heritage and versatility within Japanese dinnerware.

A defining feature of Mino ware is its remarkable variety. Unlike many other Japanese pottery that adheres to a singular style, Mino ware boasts more than fifteen different styles, each with its unique charm developed over centuries. This region now accounts for over fifty percent of Japan's ceramic production, highlighting its unrivaled popularity.

In recognition of its cultural significance, Mino ware was designated as a traditional craft in 1978 by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (now the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry). Mino ware continues to enchant with its blend of historical depth and contemporary relevance, truly embodying a high standard of craftsmanship.
