The inside of the bowl is beautifully adorned with a design of a rabbit leaping under the moon and the traditional seigaiha pattern of blue ocean waves. The seigaiha motif depicts gently spreading waves and is a traditional symbol of everlasting peace and happiness. Meanwhile, the moon rabbit holds deep cultural significance in Japan, symbolizing fertility, longevity, and prosperity. The combination of these two auspicious motifs creates a design that is both elegant and warm.
The harmonious blend of the seigaiha and moon rabbit motifs not only brings a sense of calm and good fortune to your dining experience but also makes this bowl an excellent choice for a thoughtful and elegant gift.

Incorporating one or several kobachi bowls into a table setting and arranging dishes of different sizes and colors lends your meal an authentic Japanese atmosphere.
This category includes bowls with diameters under 12.9 cm (5.1 in).
