This square blue and white dinner plate is perfectly suited for serving main dishes. The lines drawn along the rim accentuate the dish elegantly. Meticulously painted in the sometsuke style using a cobalt blue underglaze, each piece embodies the essence of Seto sometsuke ware.
As the painting is done by hand, no two pieces are exactly alike. Each stroke varies in thickness, neither too straight nor too rigid, exuding a gentle softness.
The plate is of an ideal size for serving main dishes such as sashimi or tempura. It is also versatile enough for a variety of other uses, such as serving salads, appetizers, or desserts.

Maker / Brand
Founded in 1919, SINGAMA is a family-run pottery studio in Shinano, a small town nestled in the northeastern hills of Seto City, Aichi Prefecture. Using high-quality local clay, the studio specializes in Seto sometsuke—white porcelain adorned with soft, indigo blue designs. Each piece is hand-painted and crafted to express comfort, with gentle forms and warmth that feel at home on the everyday table.
Crafts
Made in and around Seto City in Aichi Prefecture, Seto ware encompasses a wide range of ceramics that reflect centuries of craftsmanship and innovation. As one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns (Rokkoyo), the Seto region holds a distinguished place in the country’s ceramic heritage. It was also a pioneer in porcelain mass-production, and its widespread use gave rise to the word setomono—a term still used today to refer to ceramics in general.
Remarkable for its stylistic breadth, Seto is one of the few regions in Japan where both stoneware and porcelain are made. From simple everyday tableware to more refined pieces, Seto ware continues to shape the rhythm of daily life with creations that balance tradition and creativity.
