Experience the pinnacle of modern Japanese craftsmanship with this exquisite pair of Silver Leaf Underglaze Ricebowls. A hallmark of contemporary Kutani ware, this sophisticated technique involves the meticulous application of genuine silver leaf, which is then layered with transparent or traditional five-colour glazes before undergoing the firing process.

The high-temperature firing ensures a durable finish that preserves the silver's lustre, making these pieces as practical for daily use as they are beautiful for display.

Whether you are looking to elevated your meal or seeking a thoughtful, high-end gift for a wedding or anniversary, these rice bowls bring the prestigious history of the Soshu Kiln directly to your table.

Please note, the product is not safe for microwave.

A Note on Sizing: These pieces are sold as a traditional Meoto ("husband and wife") pair. It is a hallmark of this style that one piece is intentionally crafted to be slightly larger than the other; a design that historically signified the couple, though today it serves as a practical, space-saving feature for nesting and storage. We hope you enjoy the unique character and history that these variations bring to your home.

Please be aware that handmade items may differ slightly in colour, pattern, shape, and size from the product image.

About the Region

Kutani Ware

Established in 1655, Ishikawa’s Kutani-yaki is defined by its masterful use of the traditional Gosai palette, a vibrant quintet of red, green, yellow, navy, and purple. What truly sets Kutani apart is its freedom of expression. Rather than adhering to strict regional templates, each kiln is encouraged to develop its own artistic signature.

Here, porcelain is treated as a canvas; a vibrant fusion of heritage techniques and modern sensibility. This delicate balance between timeless tradition and contemporary functionality is the very soul of Kutani-yaki today.

To ensure this product is right for you, please review the Care Instructions prior to purchase.
