Know before you buy
A futamono is a lidded bowl traditionally used in Japanese cuisine to serve delicate dishes like steamed egg custard, soups, or simmered vegetables. The lid helps retain heat and keeps the presentation elegant until the moment of serving.
Yes, the lid is designed to be versatile and can function as a small steaming dish or a side plate for condiments and garnishes. Its durable ceramic construction allows it to handle the heat required for steaming.
The bowl measures 12cm in height and has a diameter of 8.9cm. It is a compact, deep vessel suitable for individual portions of porridge, soup, or sweets.
While the ceramic material is durable, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the floral motif and the vintage charcoal finish. Use caution with high-heat microwave settings to avoid thermal shock.
The charcoal body features a refined finish that highlights the authentic Japanese craftsmanship. It offers a sophisticated, understated aesthetic that contrasts beautifully with the intricate floral and bird pattern on the lid.
