Akihiro Nikaido Yakishime Rim Plate (White) Φ18cm H4cm, set of 2. It seems that these are no longer sold, and future production is uncertain. Mr. Nikaido's works are "vessels that enjoy aging." [Description of Work] If you put oily or strongly colored foods (such as soy sauce) on the plate without doing anything, it may stain or change color. That is also part of the charm, but Before you start using it, apply grapeseed oil to the entire surface and let it soak in for a few minutes, then wash it off. This will make it less likely to stain. (When oil is applied to yakishime ware, the underlying brown color becomes more prominent.) Also, soaking the plate in water each time before use will make it less likely to stain. (However, staining may still occur.) It will gradually become familiar with use. Please enjoy the changes and appearance of the vessel.
