Fukui Craft Ash Glaze Rectangular Serving Plate - 21cm - Green

With its rectangular shape and muted green tones, this plate brings a touch of minimalist beauty to the dining experience. The ash glaze technique, pivotal in the history of Japanese pottery, gives the piece its distinctive crackled texture and depth of colour.

The gentle contours of the plate's edges provide a subtle elevation, ideal for presenting a variety of dishes. Ash glaze, a method traditionally made from wood or straw ash, has been celebrated since its accidental discovery. Each plate is a unique work, the ash melting over the surface during firing to create an individual masterpiece, connecting the present to past pottery traditions.
