The Tokoname ware platter by Shingo Iwahashi of Seitengama is a piece of work with a unique expression created using a special technique called crystal glaze. In the glaze that changes from pale pink to beige, countless crystals are blooming, just like cherry blossoms in full bloom. These crystals are a natural beauty created by chance due to temperature changes during firing, and no two pieces are alike. The gently curved shape of the platter catches the light and makes the crystals shine even more. It comes with a box and is in good storage condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTokoname ware is known as one of Japan's six oldest kilns that has been in operation since the Heian period in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture, and boasts a history of over 1,000 years. Crystal glaze is an advanced technique in which the ingredients contained in the glaze crystallize during firing, and the size and shape of the crystals change depending on temperature control and cooling rate. The flower-like crystals seen on this platter are an art born from Shingo Iwahashi's expert technique and dialogue with flame. Seitengama's works are praised for their unique aesthetic sense, which combines modern sensibilities while preserving tradition. The pale colors and delicate crystal patterns give it a universal beauty that harmonizes with Western spaces even though it is a Japanese vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecommended uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen placed against a wall or shelf as a decorative plate, it brings elegance and dignity to your space.
