Triangle small plate- Ayu<japanese river fish> by Tanaka-pottery

Tanaka Seito, a ceramic studio located in Keihoku, Kyoto, is run solely by young potter Daiki Tanaka, who trained under master artisans of Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware.

Tanaka Seito is renowned for carefully selecting high-quality materials, creating durable and functional tableware such as translucent white porcelain with exceptional texture. The studio has gained popularity among fans both in Japan and abroad.

The charming hand-painted designs are created by "Thinking Brush," an artist who trained alongside Daiki Tanaka in the same ceramic environment. She collaborates with Tanaka Seito as part of her creative journey, bringing artistic freedom to each piece.

By applying freehand illustrations to Tanaka's crafted porcelain, she introduces a creative expression that transcends the traditional boundaries of Kiyomizu-ware.

Experience the unique texture of carefully crafted white porcelain and the originality of hand-painted designs — a modern reinterpretation of Kyoto’s ceramic artistry.

Owner's Comment

This small plate is perfectly sized for serving soy sauce or small desserts like Japanese sweets.

The hand-painted design is underglazed, ensuring it won’t fade or peel, making it a durable and long-lasting piece.
