MERU Jade Spume Mino Ware Round Plate 8in

This is an easy-to-use side plate characterized by a moody green color, reminiscent of a deep forest. Instead of shiny, bright gems, the design is chic and modern, featuring subdued tones and matte textures like Jade gemstones.

The deep green tones go well with warm-colored foods such as red, yellow, and orange. Even a few bright colors, such as tomatoes, can make a dish stand out even more.

It is suitable for use as a serving dish for a group of several people or as a main plate. 

The flat bottom and raised rim shape make it easy to serve and suitable for foods with a lot of liquid. The simple yet trendy shape makes it ideal for both everyday use and for those seeking a restaurant-like atmosphere.

The Jade series is also available in other sizes and shapes. 

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.
