Nobuhiko Tanaka’s "Hai-Kohiki" is a series of vessels that possesses a profound depth of expression. By mixing sand into porcelain, he creates a raw, rugged texture, which is then layered with white slip and a wood-ash glaze to produce a delicate web of fine crackles. The charm of these pieces lies in their unique presence—a seamless coexistence of the rustic warmth of earthenware and the refined, dignified aura of porcelain.

This small dish is perfectly sized for daily use, making it ideal for serving condiments, small confections, or as a soy sauce dish. Its effortless charm brings a touch of understated beauty to your everyday dining table.
