Orihi Dish

This is an Oribe-hi-dasuki medium plate by Koji Nakahara, an artist who studied under Fumio Kawabata and aims to create works that suit modern life. This piece is crafted to combine the stain resistance and ease of use provided by Oribe glazing with the evolving character and tactile charm of Bizen clay. While retaining the beautiful transformation and comfortable feel of Bizen clay, the outer edge is reinforced with Oribe glaze, enhancing its perfection as tableware. The center section is designed to showcase the Bizen clay, skillfully highlighting the intriguing changes and the raw, unglazed texture of the earth. The outer rim features a stylish, petal-like design that reflects the meticulous care and fine craftsmanship characteristic of Nakahara-sensei. No box
