Owner's Comment

This charming small bowl features a petal-like rim and is adorned with both cherry blossoms and maple leaves—an elegant combination known in Japan as “Unkin,” symbolizing beauty across the seasons.

Its size is perfect for small sides like pickled vegetables or sesame tofu, and the gently curved depth makes it both graceful and highly practical.
