SOUTA Kiln was founded in 1997 by Naoya Morokuma in Yamauchi Town, located next to Arita in Saga Prefecture.
While preserving the traditions of Arita ware, the kiln creates tableware designed to suit modern lifestyles.
Their pieces are beloved across generations for their gentle, hand-fitting forms and approachable reinterpretations of classical patterns.
This charming gourd-shaped plate features a beautifully hand-painted tako-karakusa (octopus arabesque) pattern in indigo.
Perfect for serving soy sauce, condiments, or small side dishes, it's a versatile piece for everyday meals.
The rounded gourd shape, long considered a symbol of protection and good fortune in Japan, adds a gentle and auspicious presence to the table.
Its delightful form and traditional motif make it especially popular among older generations, and it's also a thoughtful gift for special occasions or celebrations.

Caution
As each piece is hand-painted, variations in shading and line thickness may occur. These are signs of its handmade character and uniqueness.
Wash gently using a mild detergent and a soft sponge. Avoid scrubbing with abrasive materials.
While dishwasher safe, please ensure delicate items are placed to avoid contact with harder tableware.
For plates with colored patterns or gold accents, avoid vigorous scrubbing, as it may cause fading.
