• Curator's Notes 

   

  This hand-carved and lacquered plate, adorned with the loveliest painterly strokes at its center, feels like a work of art beneath your fingertips. Its wide rim, with a small beveled edge, expertly crafted, frames each dish with grace, enhancing your dining experience. Mitani's signature "White" urushi lacquer reads as the perfect neutral putty colour, providing a warm, natural backdrop. With every meal served on this plate, you're not just enjoying food; you're savoring the meticulous craftsmanship and passion infused into each stroke and curve. It's a culinary canvas waiting for your creativity to unfold, promising unforgettable dining moments filled with heart and artistry. Two sizes are available, Large (shown here) and Small (available here). Either plate would be appropriate for a light serving.
