Seto Ware Black Rectangular Appetizer Plate

This exquisite Handmade Seto Ware Rectangular Plate brings the celebrated tradition of Seto-yaki (one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns) to your modern table. Crafted in the Seto region, renowned for its diverse glazes, this piece features a deep, semi-matte black glaze that serves as a dramatic canvas. The beauty is amplified by the intentional rustic flash of iron-oxide brown and speckled texture, achieving a stunning wabi-sabi effect that makes every plate uniquely captivating.
