Awasaka Edokko Dinosaur Hiyakuryu Mini Plate - 9cm

The Awasaka Edokko Dinosaur Hiyakuryu Mini Plate brings a playful twist to a classic Japanese form. The Hiyakuryu design features a dynamic Pterosaur soaring over traditional Japanese waves, rendered in the classic blue and white Sometsuke style — a pairing that blends seamlessly with traditional pottery while offering something quietly unexpected.

At 9cm, this mamezara (mini plate) fits comfortably in the hand and is well suited as a soy sauce dish, for pickles, condiments, and small sides with soba and udon. Part of the Edokko Dinosaur series by Awasaka, it is a piece that adults and children can enjoy equally.
