Oribe Green Sauce Plate
Estimated Shipping Widget will be displayed here!
Finished with a deep, lustrous Oribe glaze, this hand-shaped sauce plate reflects the quiet sophistication of Japanese pottery while remaining perfectly suited for everyday use.
A base coat of Kizeto glaze—a pale yellow glaze unique to Mino ware—is first applied, then layers of Oribe glaze are brushed by hand, creating subtle variations in tone and depth. The unglazed underside retains the earthy touch of raw clay, creating a striking harmony with the glossy surface above, a balance of refinement and nature.
Made for the table yet mindful of space, the low profile sits steady. It’s sized for small appetizers and condiments, but also works for pickles, spices, or small sweets. Presented in an elegant box, this plate makes a thoughtful gift or a graceful addition to your own table.

Oribe
Oribe is a distinctive style of Japanese ceramics that emerged in the early 17th century within the Mino tradition. Named after the tea master Furuta Oribe, it is known for its free-spirited shapes and expressive surface patterns that convey movement and individuality. Artisans often shape the clay by hand, subtly adjusting the rim or contour to embody this aesthetic before firing. Asymmetry, bold lines, and a deep copper-green glaze reveal rhythm within its organic silhouette.
