Know before you buy
While these bowls are made of durable Mino Ware ceramic, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the hand-dyed finish. They are generally microwave safe for short durations, but avoid extreme temperature changes to prevent thermal shock.
Each bowl is individually handcrafted and hand-dyed using the traditional 'Court Dyed' technique. These variations are intentional and reflect the unique character of artisanal pottery rather than a manufacturing defect.
These bowls are designed in the traditional Japanese style, making them perfectly sized for a standard serving of rice, miso soup, or small side dishes. They are compact and intended for individual portions rather than large family-style serving.
To maintain the finish, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents. We suggest washing them gently with a soft cloth and drying them thoroughly before stacking to prevent moisture buildup between the pieces.
Yes, this set is curated for gifting and arrives packaged in a way that protects the delicate ceramic. It is an excellent choice for housewarmings, weddings, or anyone who appreciates traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
