Pink
Pink is frequently linked with emotions such as love, care, maturity, and romance. Pink tableware uniquely captures these feelings, evoking a sense of warmth and sweetness that reflects the essence of blossoms and the emotions they inspire.
In Japan, pink is a color deeply connected to the beauty of spring. Known as sakura iro "cherry blossom color," it embodies the hue of spring sunlight shining on blooming cherry trees. Another notable shade is momo zome, the vibrant pink of peach blossoms, which is more vivid than sakura iro. Additionally, there's nadeshiko iro, a pink with a slight lean towards purple, named after a plant featured in the classic Japanese anthology, the Manyoshu.
