A gift for a loved one, or a treat for yourself... [Released in Autumn 2025] Works by my father-in-law, a ceramic artist. He was involved in haute couture tailoring in Tokyo for about 40 years, and for about 15 years after his retirement, he has been working on pottery in his home atelier and kiln. My father-in-law's ceramic works are characterized by careful handwork, delicate silhouettes, and soft colors in good balance, with a focus on the feel of the mouth and the touch when held in the hand. ------ A set of two shallow plates made of black clay with a Turkish blue glaze. At first glance, they appear black, but depending on the angle of the light, a deep green appears. The "shinogi" (carved lines) are simple and straight. Perfect for olives, nuts, cheese, butter, desserts, side dishes, or as small bowls. Also great for serving Japanese or Western sweets, one serving per person. They can also be used as individual plates or condiment dishes. ◎ They have some depth, so they are also suitable for dishes with liquid. They can be used in a wide range of settings, from chic Western to Japanese, like a small restaurant or izakaya, and will make your table look great, making home cafes and home drinking more enjoyable. There is one pinhole on the right plate, but it does not affect its use.
