Sensibility honed in a tranquil temple

A plate used at a special event at Sairaiji Temple, a sub-temple of Kenninji Temple in Kyoto .

Inspired by the tranquility of the temple and the beauty of the stone paving in the garden, the matte white creates a look reminiscent of the texture of stone.


Gradations of moss-covered green and ink-like black are layered on top of it, adding a softness to the dignified appearance.

Free ideas born in a quiet pottery studio

The pottery was created by Takemura Yotaro of Dainichi Kiln, whose studio is located near Kanshuji Temple in Kyoto.

Together with his father, Shigeo, he continues to create products that value free thinking while carrying on traditional techniques.

Each piece is carefully crafted in a quiet workshop nestled in the mountains, exuding a playfulness amidst the tranquility.

The world of layered colors

Takemura Yotaro's "Glazed Mud Color" is created using a unique technique of spraying glaze with an air spray.

The soft, misty layers of color create a sense of depth reminiscent of a mossy garden or ink-colored cobblestones.

Each piece has a different expression, giving the series the feel of a snapshot of a natural landscape.

A special outfit suitable for a gift

The size is just right for serving desserts and snacks, and it will enhance your food while adding color to your table.

Furthermore, this product will be delivered in a special presentation box and paper bag that embodies the Japanese aesthetic .

The moment you open the box, you will feel a special sense of relief, making it a perfect gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or as a gift for someone who has helped you.

This is a piece that we can confidently recommend not only for everyday use, but also as a gift to add color to important occasions.
