Furutani Potters was established in 1970 by Nobuo Furutani. By applying white slip to our unique blend of iron-rich red clay and firing it twice at low temperatures, we create soft, powdered vessels. The "white" of our powdered ceramics is rustic and warm. It gently embraces any dish and pairs perfectly with other tableware. Additionally, guided by the theme "accompanying daily life," we subtly adapt our designs to fit various lifestyles, including food culture and living spaces. We create our pieces daily, believing that our simple and easy-to-use ceramics will surely enrich your life.
01. Enjoyable and Delicious Cooking
When food is served in a beautiful vessel, it truly shines. Even the same dish takes on a different appearance when the vessel changes. "What kind of dish should I serve in this vessel?" Your imagination expands, making cooking even more enjoyable.
02. Tableware You'll Want to Use Every Day
Our ceramics feature a rustic texture and simple design because we want you to use them every day. We design them to be lightweight, easy to hold, and just the right size, incorporating various ideas into their creation. We hope they become vessels that you "find yourself using every day."
03. Crafted with Heart
Every piece of Furutani Potters' tableware is meticulously handmade through each step of the process. We pour our hearts into crafting each piece, hoping to create even better vessels tomorrow than today, envisioning the smiles of those who will use them. Our soft, gentle handmade ceramics gently embrace your food.

About this Work
This adorable flower-shaped dish features a rust-colored glaze that gives it an antique feel.
It's convenient for single-serving main dishes or one-plate meals.
A nice bonus is that anything you serve on it seems to look good.
Rust glaze is a type of glaze that tends to show variations in its firing. While it is generally a matte texture, areas that are well-fired, such as the rim and bottom, may appear greenish and have a slight sheen.
Additionally, because it has fine crazing, it has been treated to prevent water absorption. Please refrain from performing sealing treatments such as boiling it in rice water.
As each piece is handcrafted, there may be slight wobbles, distortions, small holes, or unevenness, and due to the production process, the backstamp may be difficult to see on some items. Furthermore, as natural raw materials are used, some items may have small iron spots (black spots) from the clay, or glaze runs, pools, or pinholes.
Even when made in the same way, no two pieces are exactly alike. We hope you will appreciate these individual characteristics and flavors.
