{"product_id":"p3061","title":"Bizen small plate","description":"This is a new four-sun Bizen plate by Yoshinobu Morimoto, an artist with an exceptional aesthetic sense who continues to evolve in his work with clay, firing, and craftsmanship. Focusing on \"coordination,\" a central theme in Mr. Morimoto's recent work, we commissioned these pieces to be enjoyed in combination with the sake vessels and other items he has released in the past. At just under 15 centimeters, this easy-to-use plate is versatile enough to serve as a side plate for drinks or a dish for sweets. The *kangen-hidasuki* (reduction-fired fire-cord) scenery—a grey base with deep crimson fire-cord markings that the artist focuses on—reveals an even more beautiful character if you soak the plate in water before use.\n\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 13.3cm × 13.2cm × Height 2.1cm\n\nYoshinobu Morimoto was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1976.
