Arita Ware TY Round Deep Plate Grey [6 Sizes]

"1616 / arita japan" is a brand that introduces new standards for diverse modern food cultures, based on traditional Arita ware techniques. Among the series, which began with creative director Teruhiro Yanagihara and a team of Dutch designers, we particularly recommend the "TY Round Deep Plate (Grey)."

The unique "smooth" comfort you can feel

When you hold the product, your fingertips will feel the matte, smooth warmth of the clay, distinct from the glossy texture of glaze. This unique grey texture creates soft shadows within the dish depending on the light, making the colors of the food (reds, greens, and the sheen of sauces) surprisingly vivid.

Breaking free from traditional Japanese tableware "dimensions (sun)"

Most traditional Japanese tableware is made according to the old "sun" size standard (approximately 3cm increments). However, this series deliberately offers its own unique size range, unconstrained by traditional Japanese tableware sizes.

Its geometric, minimalist form, stripped of all waste, beautifully accommodates all genres of cuisine, from Japanese food to French, Italian, and international dishes like spice curries.

Professional-grade "toughness" that belies its beauty

Another appeal of this tableware is its overwhelming practicality.

While some may worry that "matte textured dishes are difficult to handle," these are durable porcelain fired at high density. They are compatible with microwaves, dishwashers, ovens, and freezers. From everyday home use to demanding restaurant and cafe operations, they serve as reliable partners.

*Incidentally, compared to the "white" items in the same series, these "grey" items are slightly larger and heavier, giving them a more substantial feel.
