Shigaraki ware is a type of ceramic made around Shigaraki-cho, Koka City, Shiga Prefecture, and is one of Japan’s six oldest kilns. It was designated as a national traditional craft in 1976. This pottery is made using clay harvested from Lake Biwa, and has a rough texture and a warm earthy look that gives it a deep atmosphere. This leaf shape plate has a beautiful green glaze in the middle. The size is good for a cake or Japanese appetizers. Vintage but it seems they were never used. There is a stamp of ‘shigaraki yaki’ at the back of the plate.
