Stoneware is a type of pottery called "sekki" (stoneware) that has properties intermediate between earthenware and porcelain (softer than porcelain). Representative examples include some of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan (Bizen ware, Shigaraki ware). It is as hard and durable as stone, does not allow water to pass through, and is resistant to stains and odors. It is also functional, being microwave and dishwasher safe. The country-style design is also lovely, and can be used for various purposes, such as curry plates, pasta plates, and one-plate dishes. ・【KIRII】Special Price!!
