Dessert Plate - Flapjack Octopus by Takunobu Sawada

Realistic, yet somehow endearing.
Relax with your favorite cup.

Vessels that convey the warmth of handcraftsmanship

The animal patterns are not drawn with a brush but are expressed by scratching off the kohiki base.

Each line has movement, resulting in a unique and warm finish.

Takanobu Sawada, whose father is a Kyoyaki-Kiyomizuyaki potter, has been familiar with pottery since childhood and has already been creating pottery for 20 years.

At 30, he is a craftsman with solid skills, having reached the level of a veteran.

Sawada, who combines a youthful sensibility with refined skills, creates highly original vessels unique to Kyoto.

Please experience their charm in your daily life.

Comment from the Owner

This is a convenient flat plate, created using the time-consuming "tatara" slab-building technique.

It's a versatile dish, perfect for cakes, pastries, side dishes, or salads. It's an easy-to-use vessel that you'll want to have multiple of.

A delightful piece with expressive animals that are enjoyable just to look at.

Please find your favorite.
