Large Japanese Bowl, Navy Blue with Small White Flowers

A large navy blue bowl, scattered with small white flowers inside and out.

On a deep navy blue glaze, small white flowers are scattered freely, with no apparent order, like a meadow in spring. The decoration covers both the outside and the inside of the bowl, so it stays visible throughout the meal.

The contrast between the dark blue and the white is simple and bright. Plant motifs are a favourite theme of Japanese tableware, which likes to bring nature and the seasons to the table.

At 21.2 cm in diameter and 8 cm high, it suits salads, noodles, ramen or dishes to share in the middle of the table.

Its deep colour brings out greens, reds and yellows: a tomato salad or stir-fried vegetables look especially vivid in it.
