This wooden lacquered plate is crafted on a lathe by Japan Crafts Oshima in Yamanaka, Ishikawa Prefecture, a region renowned for its 400-year history of wooden lathe production. The plate has been created in collaboration with Sōen, a platform that celebrates Japanese craftsmanship by developing a single design interpreted by various artisans using their specialized materials.
The plate is crafted from Japanese zelkova wood, celebrated for its distinctive grain that results an different pattern for each plate. Its dark tone and durable nature make it well-suited for everyday use. The XS size plate is a mamezara (a small plate named after the word mame, meaning bean) for condiments and small dishes. The M size plate is ideal for small cakes, wagashi (Japanese confectionery) or fruit. Each plate follows the design by Sōen, allowing them to stack perfectly on top of each other.

Tōhoku
Region

Tōhoku

東北

Tōhoku consists of six prefectures located in the north-east of Honshu island. This region is known for its hot spring (onsen) resorts, colourful festivals, remote sacred mountains and harsh winters. In 2011, the devastating earthquake and tsunami hit the region hard; however, the massive efforts in reconstruction are proof of the people’s resilience. Urushi (lacquer) ware, ironware and the crafting of kokeshi dolls make up but a few of the local industries in this lesser-visited region of Japan.
