Toki Takane Indigo Tokusa Zaru Soba Set - 25cm Large Plate - Indigo Blue
The Toki Takane Indigo Tokusa Zaru Soba Set brings authentic Japanese dining to the table in a considered pairing. The 25cm large plate features the classic Tokusa (horsetail grass) pinstripe pattern in deep indigo blue, paired with a traditional bamboo-style zaru draining mat designed to keep cold noodles aerated, fresh, and perfectly textured.
While the set is designed for zaru soba, the generous 25cm plate is equally versatile without the mat — well suited to tempura platters, pasta, and shared appetisers. Made in Japan by Toki Takane using traditional Mino ware techniques, it adds a refined Japanese aesthetic to everyday dining.
