Created with Yamako Takagi Pottery, Known for Warm and Charming Painting

The Good Day Rice Bowl series offers various patterns created with kilns from across Japan. This 'Taihaku Wild Chrysanthemums' was created with Yamako Takagi Pottery, which has been crafting ceramics in Toki City, Gifu Prefecture since 1929. This Mino ware kiln specializes in generous, warm-hearted painting styles.

The Natural 'Wavering' of Handcraftsmanship Adds Charm

In the Good Day Rice Bowl series, each pattern is hand-painted, making every piece unique with its own individual character. This 'wavering' quality characteristic of craft is a beauty that comes only from handwork. Through these daily rice bowls, please enjoy the charm of craftsmanship that has been loved and continued for generations.

May Your Daily Rice Bowl Bring Good Days

The Good Day Rice Bowl series was created with the hope that 'everyday items should bring good days.' Japanese rice bowls developed from tea ceremony traditions while being influenced by continental culture. They have fostered customs of hand-holding etiquette and a culture of diverse decorative painting that brightens daily life. Contemporary artisans carrying on this history finish each piece with meticulous handwork. Please enjoy their comforting presence and the rich world created by various patterns.
