The surface of this plate radiates a milky luminance, courtesy of its glazed stoneware finish. Beginning with a solitary camellia, the design has been meticulously refined to incorporate leaves that harmoniously blend dark and light green shades. The petals, treated with white and red dyes, exhibit a textured, glossy finish, offering a stunning contrast to the leaf's watercolor effect.
This exquisite piece is crafted by painters with a deep allegiance to Japanese-style painting traditions. While this design traditionally graces the interiors of teacups, it finds a novel expression on this rectangular plate, infusing it with refined elegance.
The underside of the plate is left unglazed, showcasing the raw texture of the clay in a rustic creamy-white hue. Its silhouette, with natural variances and soft ripples, speaks of the potter's intimate engagement with the material, evoking the thoughtful and skilled process behind this distinctive creation.
This plate, with its precise dimensions, offers an exceptional presentation for gourmet servings, from sushi and sashimi to tempura.

Maker / Brand
Tosen Kiln was founded in 1868 as a Kiyomizu ware wholesaler. In 1944, it established a production studio in Mukomachi, a suburb of Kyoto, marking the beginning of full-scale Kiyomizu ware production. Today, the kiln operates in Gojo, Kyoto, continuing its legacy of craftsmanship.
Dedicated to refining its techniques and artistic sensibilities, Tosen Kiln embraces Kyoto’s traditional craftsmanship while adapting it for the modern era. Drawing inspiration from Edo-period master potter Nonomura Ninsei, it preserves his precise lathing techniques and luminous painting styles, blending them with clean lines and warm tones to create pieces that resonate with contemporary aesthetics.
