Kichiemon Pottery Bubble Glaze Series Footed Plate (L) 22.5cm

Regarding product inspection standards and notes

We only sell products that have passed the manufacturer's inspection, but please be aware of the following product characteristics:

• Due to the handcrafted nature of the bubble glaze, each product will have unique variations in the bubble patterns.
• As black bubble cloud gold and black bubble cloud silver use overglaze applied by hand, some rubbing may occur on the rim.
• For black bubble cloud gold and black bubble cloud silver, which use overglaze, hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the gold and silver surface.
• Black bubble cloud gold and black bubble cloud silver can be microwaved because they use mica.
• If you have any other concerns, please contact us.

Individual products may vary slightly in color, pattern, and weight. Additionally, some products may have small black dots (iron particles) or glaze drips on the surface, but this does not indicate a quality issue.

HASAMI PORCELAIN Grey Collection Plate (L) 22cm Plate

HASAMI PORCELAIN THE GREY COLLECTION is a collection made of grey porcelain. The exterior has a sharp, matte grey texture right up to the edge, while the interior is coated with glaze, giving it a glossy, smooth finish. The contrast in textures is striking. The brand's common diameter module and the matte texture of the bisque harmonize and coexist with the original collection. Plates and bowls are designed to be half the height of the original collection. The glossy, glazed interior is smooth and won't catch on metal cutlery, making it suitable for a variety of meals.

ALONGU Akashi Rongo Plate 22cm

The brand name "ALONGU Akashi Rongo" was chosen to represent a vessel that embraces the current state of Japanese cuisine, where various nationalities and regional characteristics coexist, and seeks to embody the future of Japanese food. By intentionally adding "U" to "ALONG" to mimic Japanese romanization, and combining it with the kanji "明論具" (Akashi Rongo), the brand signifies a vessel that accommodates the diverse international culinary landscape while clearly indicating its Japanese origin.

The designer is Jin Kuramoto, a product designer known for his work on HAY's "KNIT," arflex Japan's "JK," and home appliances such as Audio-Technica's wireless earphones. This is Kuramoto's first venture into tableware among his numerous product designs. The art direction is handled by graphic designer Rei Masaki. Born in New York and active in Tokyo since 2017, Masaki is a Japanese American whose perspective allows the world of "ALONGU Akashi Rongo" to be expressed in a borderless, international way.

The ALONGU Akashi Rongo series aims to redefine the image of porcelain products as having a uniform finish. To allow customers to enjoy the unique personality and subtle variations of the material, the series is intentionally crafted with glazes and finishes that offer a wide range of expressions.

About ALONGU Akashi Rongo Quality Control Standards

While we only sell products that have passed the manufacturer's inspection, please be aware of the following product characteristics:

• "Yakishime" products are fired at high temperatures without glaze, so individual differences in black spots and color may occur on the surface due to firing conditions such as weather. Additionally, if left for a long time after use, oil stains may appear.
• The rim of "Fuchisabi" products is treated with an iron-based glaze, so individual differences in color may occur due to firing conditions such as weather.
• "Seiji" products may exhibit glaze pooling depending on the glazing process, and individual differences in color may occur due to firing conditions such as weather.
• "Tenmoku" products use a delicate glaze created by crystalline components, so individual differences in color may occur due to firing conditions such as weather.
• Due to the active use of glazes with rich expressions, vessels with small spots or unevenness are considered good quality.
• For any other concerns, please contact us.
