Light Fleur Japanese Rice Bowl

This charming Tobe ware Japanese rice bowl features a beautiful flower in a gentle light blue on the inside and a soft green on the outside. 

The subtle colors decorate the blooming flowers painted on a white porcelain canvas. Small dots painted in gold are scattered, adding a discreet accent to the overall design. 

Higashi Kiln employs a unique technique called washi-zome. Colors and designs are added to the unglazed surfaces using Japanese washi paper. This technique adds a watercolor-like softness to the floral patterns which creates a pleasant atmosphere on a table. 

This rice bowl fits well in one hand and is easy to hold. You can enjoy the detailed texture of the washi-zome upclose as you savor hot rice with this bowl.
