Rice bowls are an essential part of the Japanese dining table. Since Japanese people use these items every day, we select them not only for their beautiful appearance, but also for their comfortable size and ease of holding in our hands.
This product is a pair of rice bowls called "Meoto Chawan". In Japan, married couples are called "Meoto" and it is customary to have matching rice bowls. It is a symbol of marital bliss to have the same dining table every day, making it an ideal wedding gift. And of course, it is wonderful to surround the dining table with matching rice bowls with your loved one!
Kutani ware, known overseas as a traditional work of art, has transcended the boundaries of craftmanship since the late Showa era in Japan(1960s-1980s), evolving from a traditional craft to fine art.
Among the techniques that developed during this period is the art of "Ginsai". Each pattern, meticulously crafted by hand using silver foil, possesses a beauty so unique that it truly appears as an unparalleled work of art in the world.
