Enjoy your daily white rice even more. Jun Takagi's Bizen ware rice bowl, gentle and comfortable in your palm.
Bizen ware, one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns, is a proud heritage of Okayama Prefecture. Each rice bowl, meticulously crafted by artist Jun Takagi, is fired without glaze, allowing the raw vitality and warmth of the clay itself to shine through.
■ Maison Toji's Selection Point
Maison Toji selected this rice bowl for its "delicate size" and "handmade warmth." The small size, approximately 11cm, fits comfortably in a woman's hand, offering stress-free lightness and ease of holding for a utensil used most frequently in daily meals. We chose it as an item that visually conveys deliciousness, with the calm tones unique to Bizen ware beautifully highlighting freshly cooked white rice.
