Know before you buy
No, these plates are not dishwasher, microwave, or oven safe. Due to the delicate handmade nature of the Aritayaki porcelain and the varied finishes, they should be hand-washed with care.
These plates are ideal for individual portions of appetizers, desserts, or small seasonal kaiseki courses. Their 16cm size and asymmetrical shape make them best suited for light bites rather than main courses.
Because each piece is handmade, there will be subtle variations in the camellia patterns and the application of the matte, gloss, and textured finishes. This artisanal quality ensures that every plate in your set is unique.
Given the textured finishes and artisanal porcelain, it is recommended to store them with soft protective dividers between each plate. This prevents scratching or chipping the delicate surfaces when stacked.
These plates excel in minimalist or traditional Japanese table settings where the focus is on seasonal presentation. Their nature-inspired design and varied textures add visual interest without overwhelming the rest of your dinnerware.
