Rustic Earth-Tone Dessert Plate

Thi small round dessert plate of beautiful white Shino ware (yukishino) has an understated earthy character. The thick, satin white glaze has a crawling pattern that reveals the mottled brown and green undertones and rough texture of the stoneware pottery. Shino ware is a type of Mino ware that has deep, historical roots; it developed during the Momoyama period (1568–1600) and created the first white glaze used in Japanese ceramics. The classic rustic style of this plate will complement your desserts, wagashi (Japanese confectioneries), and side dishes.
