Formed from Japanese pottery and finished with a hand-applied glaze, this medium plate brings the quiet quality of Japanese ceramic craft to the most-used format. Wide enough for generous plating, present enough to frame what is placed on it.

Shizuka Fujiwara works in Shiga, Japan, forming and glazing each plate by hand. The rim is shaped individually, the surface finished with the table in mind — a plate built to hold food well and to sit easily among others.

Japanese ceramics have been treasured across the world for generations, and a plate like this brings that living tradition to your own table.

• Material: Pottery (ceramic)

Because each piece is individually made, slight variations in form and glaze are the mark of a true handmade object.

・Handmade — One by One
Every piece from Japan Classic is formed and fired entirely by hand, in small quantities, one at a time. No two are ever exactly alike.

These handcrafted works carry slight variations in shape, weight, and surface, bearing the subtle marks of true craftsmanship rather than mass production.

・Living Glaze
On glazed pieces, you will find fine crackle patterns—known in Japan as kannyu (貫入)—naturally created as the glaze cools after firing.

This delicate finish evolves with time, reflecting the quiet beauty found in wabi-sabi ceramics.

・Elegance
Inspired by Japan’s timeless aesthetic, every piece by Japan Classic blends tradition with modern versatility.

Whether for rice, soups, or shared plates, these refined tablewares are designed for everyday beauty, maintaining their grace in both Eastern and Western settings.
