Description
This is a gray-ash-glazed Kakiotoshi plate made by Toukoubou Yu.
The turnip motif, rendered through the studio’s signature meticulous white slip and Kakiotoshi (sgraffito) technique, is paired with a simple and classic ash glaze that enhances the colors of the food served upon it. The resulting glaze tone is a refreshing gray that perfectly complements a variety of ingredients.
Rather than a stark white, the overall impression is one of a warm, gentle shade, allowing you to enjoy both the clean aesthetic and the wabi-sabi charm characteristic of white slip.
At just under 20cm in diameter, this piece is the perfect size for individual servings. The simplicity and clean design make it highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of dishes.
While the piece already exudes a sense of calm maturity, as it is used over time, subtle "kannyu" (glaze crazing) marks will darken and develop a patina, imbuing it with an even deeper, antique character.
