Japanese ceramic tableware, a large square plate, approximately 26cm. This is a ceramic square plate with a black glaze and white and blue "hakeme" (brushstroke) patterns. It can be used as a shallow flat bowl or a large plate for various dishes. Because it is handmade, the shape and pattern are different for each piece, allowing you to enjoy its unique texture. Not only for Japanese food, but the modern design also makes it easy to match with Western food. It is a plate with a strong presence, perfect for serving dishes or for guests. The artist's name is unknown, but there is a backstamp (kiln mark) on the back. You can enjoy the unique taste of earthenware that is not found in mass-produced items. [Condition] There are no cracks, chips, or breaks, but please understand that this is a used item and has been stored at home. The unevenness of the glaze is likely due to the firing process. Also, there are stains on the back due to aging, so please check the photos. If you are looking for perfection or are very particular, please refrain from purchasing.
