08 Round Rim Plate L (Mocha)

FFT's featured artist, potter Shintaro Enami.

As the top apprentice to Tetsuya and Momoko Otani, he gained five years of diverse experience and is now a notable artist who has branched out from "Otani Seitojo."Enami's works are characterized by distinctive waves (shinogi). All are hand-carved, and their elegant and intricate appearance is breathtaking. His pottery wheel techniques are truly exceptional.

His pieces are lightweight, comfortable to hold, and have excellent weight balance.

The round-rimmed plate has a strongly curved rim, so even if you put something that needs to be scooped with a spoon, it won't slide off the plate and can be easily taken.

Diameter: Approximately 17.5cm / Height: Approximately 4cm

As these are artisan works, there may be individual differences in glaze, color, and size.

【Handling Instructions】
Because this pottery is absorbent, its texture will change with the moisture and oil from food. Since it is prone to staining, it is recommended to avoid dark-colored dishes until the oil has fully permeated the entire piece. The more you use it, the more character it develops, so we hope you enjoy that change. If you are concerned, try soaking it in water for about 10 minutes before use. This will help prevent staining and odors to some extent, and it will gradually mature.
