Deluxe Black Soil Plate Small

Elevate your table setting with this exquisite Mino Ware small dish, where the raw texture of black clay meets sophisticated modern design. This series is celebrated for its premium feel and earthy aesthetic, grounding your dining experience in Japanese tradition. Designed with a subtle, organic asymmetry, each piece avoids the clinical feel of a perfect circle, offering a handcrafted "wabi-sabi" charm. The glaze finish also varies beautifully depending on the color, making every dish a unique work of art. This SS size (mini plate) is incredibly functional—perfect for soy sauce, condiments, spices, or a small side of pickles and appetizers. Product Highlights Modern Artisan Aesthetic: The deep, textured black clay base provides a high-end look that contrasts beautifully with both traditional and contemporary table settings. Charming Asymmetry: The intentionally "imperfect" shape gives these plates a bespoke, studio-pottery feel that mass-produced items can't replicate. The Ultimate Accent Piece: A versatile "mini" size ideal for dipping sauces (like soy sauce or olive oil), serving garnishes, or presenting small bite-sized treats. Specifications & Care Dimensions: Approx. 4.8" x 4.9" (Diameter) × 0.7" Height Material: Authentic Mino Ware (Stoneware/Black Clay) Origin: Made in Japan Dishwasher Safe ✅ Microwave Safe ✅ Oven / Induction / Open Flame Not Compatible ❌ A Note on Craftsmanship Because each piece is individually crafted, you may notice natural variations in texture, glaze "drip" patterns, and color depth. These nuances are a hallmark of authentic Japanese ceramics and do not affect the quality or durability of the product. Care Instructions Due to the natural properties of the clay, this material contains microscopic pores that can absorb oils, potentially leading to stains. To protect your dish, we recommend "seasoning" it before its first use by soaking it in rice water. For daily use, briefly rinsing the dish under running water to let the clay absorb clean moisture before plating food will help create a natural barrier against oil stains.
