Square Plate - Kiwi Bird by Takunobu Sawada

Vessels that convey the warmth of handcrafted work

The animal patterns are not drawn with a brush but created by scratching off the slip-ware base.

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

Takanobu Sawada, whose father is a potter of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki ware, has been familiar with pottery since childhood and already has 20 years of experience in pottery making.

Even in his 30s, he is a craftsman with solid skills, reaching the level of a veteran.

Mr. Sawada, who combines youthful sensibility with refined techniques, creates original vessels unique to Kyoto.

We invite you to experience their charm in your daily life.

Owner's comment

This is a beautiful square plate with animal illustrations and a clean shape.

It's the perfect size for serving small side dishes, such as omelets or salads.

It also works wonderfully as a dessert plate for cakes or traditional Japanese sweets.

With its cute animal patterns, this versatile plate will gently brighten your everyday dining table.
