{"product_id":"p4274","title":"Oribe Hexagonal Small Plate","description":"This new Oribe-glazed hexagonal small plate is the work of Koji Nakahara, a student of Fumio Kawabata, who aims to create pieces that fit modern lifestyles. As a unique Bizen-ware artist based in the major metropolis of Osaka, Nakahara creates stylish and functional small plates tailored to the requests of chefs at various high-end ryotei and restaurants. The clean, hexagonal design paired with a subtly subdued Oribe glaze gives the piece a charming presence reminiscent of a tortoiseshell. Designed with a shallow profile, the plates are space-saving, standing only about 4 cm high when stacked in a set of five.\n\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\nApprox. 10.9 cm diameter x 9.6 cm diameter x 1.4 cm height\u003cbr\u003e\n(As each piece is handmade, there may be slight variations in size)\n\nKoji Nakahara was born in Osaka Prefecture in 1978.
