The Plum Petal Stripe Rice Bowl by Kouraku Kiln is a fine example of Arita ware, designed to bring both grace and practicality to the table. Inspired by the traditional tokusa motif, slender hand-painted lines extend upward in a rhythmic pattern, echoing the natural form of horsetail grass. These lines curve into soft plum blossom shapes at the rim and base, creating a gentle floral impression that feels fresh yet deeply rooted in Japanese design.
The tall, flared shape provides just the right balance of elegance and usability. Perfect for serving rice, soups, or small donburi dishes, it offers versatility that suits both everyday meals and more thoughtful gatherings. Lightweight yet sturdy, the bowl rests comfortably in the hand, making it an easy favorite for daily use.
Available in four colors—green, blue, orange, and red—each version brings its own warmth and personality. Whether chosen individually or combined as a set, the Plum Petal Stripe Rice Bowl adds harmony, artistry, and a touch of refinement to every dining experience.

More Details
Koraku Kiln
Founded in 1865 in Arita, Koraku Kiln carries on centuries of porcelain craftsmanship with a spirit of creativity and care. Guided by the fifth generation of the Tokunaga family, the kiln handcrafts pieces that blend tradition with modern design. Known for its imaginative forms and auspicious, playful motifs, Koraku creates tableware that brings color and joy to everyday life.
Arita Ware
Arita porcelain originates from an area known as Arita on the Island of Kyushu, Japan. It is known as the birthplace of fine Japanese porcelain, and the artisans of Arita have produced exceptional ceramic works for more than 400 years. The beautiful contrast between the porcelain and the hand-painting is obtained by using exceptionally high-quality porcelain stone, allowing the glazed surface to display a distinct glossy mirror with a rich ivory luster.
Rice Bowl
The rice bowl, called ochawan (お茶碗) or simply chawan, is the most personal element among Japanese tableware. In Japan, each family member typically has their own personal rice bowl that they choose based on preference for portion size, material, and design. They may change bowls to match the season or occasion, too. For a bowl that holds a standard one-cup (150 g, 5.3 oz) serving of Japanese steamed rice, choose one that's 4.7 inches (12 cm) across and 2.4 inches (6 cm) high. For a smaller serving size (130 g, 4.6 oz), we recommend a bowl that's about 4.5 inches (11.4 cm) across and 2.3 inches (5.7 cm) high.
