This square plate is perfectly suited for serving side dishes. The lines drawn along the rim accentuate the dish elegantly. Employing a technique of “Sometsuke” (underglaze cobalt blue) painting on a base brilliantly fired to a pure white, each piece is meticulously crafted, embodying the essence of Seto Sometsuke ware.

Since the painting is done by the hands of artisans, no two pieces are exactly alike. Each stroke varies in thickness, neither too straight nor too rigid, exuding a gentle softness.

This plate is the ideal size to serve side dishes and sweets. Cuts of cold tofu or slices of sashimi can also be beautifully served as an appetizer on these well-crafted side plates.

Founded in 1919, “SINGAMA” is a pottery studio located in the northeastern part of Seto City, Aichi Prefecture, in a place called “Shinano.” The pottery is made from high-quality Seto clay and adorned with indigo Seto Sometsuke, displaying soft and delicate patterns and a simple yet charming design. The dishes, brimming with the warmth of handcraftsmanship, add a comforting touch to everyday life. Seto Sometsuke ware is characterized by its overall pale blue color and gentle style.
