This square kobachi small bowl is crafted by Takayama, a renowned maker of Hasami porcelain, and dyed with seitan, a kind of indigo.
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.

Kobachi Small Bowls
Kobachi, literally “small bowls” in Japanese, are designed for serving appetizers and side dishes. Deeper than a small plate but smaller than a main course or ramen bowl, kobachi are just the right size for light stews and simmered vegetables. 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).
Sometsuke
Sometsuke is a decorative Japanese pottery technique also known as Blue and White. It is cherished worldwide for its cobalt blue and white contrast. The visually appealing design, combined with a fine, smooth finish and lightweight feel, enhances the user experience. This makes it especially valued not only in tableware but also in art pieces.
