Handling Precautions

Notice

*Microwave oven safe.

[Before Use]

*To prevent dirt from getting into the crazing (fine cracks on the surface), we recommend sealing the cracks as follows.

●Put the rice water and container in a pot and heat over medium heat

●Just before boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes

●Turn off the heat and leave to cool to room temperature in the rice water

●Wash thoroughly and dry thoroughly

[When Using]

*As this product is sensitive to sudden temperature changes, avoid rapid heating and cooling. Instead, soak the product in water to allow it to absorb enough moisture before use to prevent stains and odors.

[After Use]

*Dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended for longer life. Overstuffing can cause damage, so please use with care.

*Avoid soaking. After washing, wipe with a soft, dry cloth, dry thoroughly, and store in a well-ventilated area.

[Caution]

*Be careful of chips and cracks caused by strong impacts.

*If cracks or fissures appear, discontinue use for safety reasons.

*Crazing may occur with use, but this does not affect use and should be enjoyed as part of the unique texture.

*Due to the handmade finish, individual variations in color and shape may occur.

A plate for grilled fish, created with a local kiln

Shigaraki is counted among Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns and remains one of the country’s leading ceramic regions. This plate was created in collaboration with a local Shigaraki kiln for serving grilled fish. Its elongated form offers just the right length and width for grilled fish, while the distinctive shape adds a quiet accent to the table and works equally well for other dishes.

An elongated form that feels balanced on the table

The fish plate measures 26cm in length, making it suitable not only for fillets but also for slightly longer fish such as horse mackerel, served whole. Though generously sized, it never feels oversized on the table thanks to its octagonal form with softly cut corners. The gently raised rim helps prevent sauces or juices from spilling.

Versatile beyond grilled fish

Available in two colours, off-white and amber, both chosen to complement and enhance food. The underside is left unglazed and stamped with Nakagwa’s “seven” mark. While ideal for grilled fish, this slender plate is also useful for arranging side dishes, serving baked sweets, or for both everyday meals and casual entertaining.
