Handling Precautions

  • Please note that ceramics with rough bottoms may scratch the product.

  • If it gets dirty, do not leave it as it is, but wipe it off with a tightly wrung cloth or soft cloth.
  • Do not soak it.
  • Wash with lukewarm water containing neutral kitchen detergent and a soft sponge. Avoid using metal scrubbers or sponges with rough surfaces.
  • After washing, wipe off the water thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid storing in direct sunlight or in a dry place.
  • Keep out of reach of children.
  • Please use the product correctly according to its intended purpose.
  • The smell of new lacquerware will disappear completely if you place it in a rice bin for a few days.
  • In very rare cases, paint or lacquer may cause a rash depending on your constitution. If this occurs, please consult a dermatologist immediately.
  • The color of lacquer will become lighter over time.
  • Please note that there may be differences in color shade, wood grain, and texture that are unique to wiped lacquer, but this is one of the charms of the craftsmanship and materials used by artisans.

A mokko-shaped tray to brighten up your dining table

This elegant design enhances any meal, harmonising beautifully with both Japanese and Western cuisine. The subtle detailing at each corner and lustrous lacquer finish create a distinguished presence that brings a sense of special occasion to everyday dining.

Just the right size for one person's meal

It is the perfect size for serving one person's meal, and can hold a rice bowl, soup bowl, and small plate. Its small size makes it stable when carrying. The design is a traditional Asian decorative shape, a "mokko shape" that has been used for building fixtures and family crests in Japan since ancient times. The graceful curves of the four corners add colour to your daily dining table.

Great for tea time, evening drinks, or as a display stand for decorations

The matte lacquer finish leaves the wood grain visible, making it a perfect addition to your everyday life, but also perfect for entertaining guests. It can be used for a wide range of purposes, including daily meals, tea time, evening drinks, and entertaining guests. It can also be used as a table for placing flowers or seasonal decorations.

This product was made using Inoue Toku Mokko's unique processing method, which inherits traditional shapes and techniques while also incorporating new techniques.
