Daitoua Neko Chigura Hachiware Rice Bowl - 11.5cm
The Daitoua Neko Chigura Hachiware Rice Bowl features the bold, confident expression of the "Hachiware" cat — a split-face design rendered in deep indigo against a crisp white ceramic background. The rich tone and characterful illustration bring a cheerful, artistic quality to the table.
At 11.5cm in diameter, the bowl is well sized for rice, small donburi portions, soups, and side dishes. Made by Daitoua from Mino ware porcelain, it is a practical and endearing piece for daily use, and a natural addition to the Neko Chigura collection.
