Owner's Comment
A one-of-a-kind, generously sized serving bowl.
Perfect for serving shared salads or main dishes at gatherings.
Beyond tableware, it can also be used as a decorative bowl—place a floral pin frog (kenzan) to display flowers, or use it as a candy dish.
A versatile piece that enhances both dining and home decor.
