Mugiwara Pattern Japanese Rice Bowl - 11cm

The Mugiwara Pattern Rice Bowl brings the warmth of a classic Japanese craft tradition to the everyday table. The Mugiwara (wheat straw) design is characterised by vertical brushstrokes in soft blue and rust tones against a white ceramic base — a look that is at once rustic and refined.

A subtle Yuragi (gentle waviness) in the form adds a handcrafted quality that makes each piece slightly unique. At 11cm in diameter, the bowl is well sized for standard rice servings, small donburi portions, and side dishes.

About Mugiwara Ware

The Mugiwara pattern is a traditional Japanese decorative technique in which wheat straw motifs are rendered through loose, expressive brushwork. Applied by hand, the pattern produces natural variation in each piece — no two bowls are identical. The Yuragi quality of the form, a deliberate gentle irregularity, is equally characteristic of this style, reflecting the Japanese appreciation for the beauty found in imperfection.
