Fujii Kinsai Kiln Somenishiki Cherry Blossom and Peony Porcelain Pair Japanese Rice Bowls - Arita Ware

Sale price¥70,400

An Elegant Meoto Pair of Arita Rice Bowls
Elegant and delicate: fine lines of gentle cherry blossoms that colour the spring and of peonies that bloom sweetly toward winter, painted with a delicate indigo brush and each set in a bold new composition. At a charming 11.4cm, the bowl sits naturally in the hand. A lovely gift for a wedding or an anniversary, it will grace your everyday table.

Cherry Blossoms and the Sea
The bowls are painted all the way around with auspicious flowers, beginning with cherry blossoms, and with seigaiha (blue ocean waves). The gentle waves stretch on without end, carrying wishes for eternity and for a lasting, peaceful life. Enjoy a finely painted compendium of good-luck motifs.

Rice Bowls Full of Flowers
The chrysanthemum, whose flower meanings are “nobility” and “integrity,” blooms bravely even under a cold winter sky; its colourful, earnest flowers express true strength and grace. The peony, called the king of flowers, and the cherry blossom are painted on opposite sides — a luxurious design to enjoy from any angle. These bowls will lend dignity to your everyday table.

Outstanding Functionality
Made from high-quality Kyushu pottery stone and fired at an ultra-high 1,300°C, this Arita porcelain feels like silk yet is hard and non-absorbent, resists stains and is easy to care for. With none of the earthy smell of stoneware, it lets you fully enjoy the aroma of your rice. Microwave and dishwasher safe, with excellent heat and cold retention — for every generation and every occasion.

The Artist's Signature on the Foot
On the foot of these superb bowls, with their auspicious patterns in red, green and blue and a splendid feast of flowers, is the signature of master Kinsai Fujii, who studied under leading figures such as Living National Treasure Manji Inoue and Shigemasa Kajiwara. The ridges carved into the foot keep the bowl from slipping on the table — the beauty of use, as only a master can achieve it.
