Shaped with a gentle oval body and accented by four small turtle feet, it is both whimsical and functional. The glossy interior is adorned with a striking hexagonal pattern in green and gold, echoing the turtle’s shell and adding a refined geometric elegance. Though small in size, the bowl is thoughtfully deep, allowing it to be used not only for condiments and dipping sauces but also for small treats or as a decorative accent.

Condiment Bowl
These small bowls come in many shapes and serve different purposes. They are generally suitable for condiments, dry seasonings like salt, garnishes, toppings, soy sauce for sashimi, pickles, small delicacies, and butter and jam. Deeper small dishes shaped like a cup are suitable for noodle dipping sauce. Tiny bowls are a popular size to collect thanks to their visual interest, compact size, and usefulness.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.Tokko Kiln
Tokko Kiln began creating their iconic Arita ware fine porcelain in 1865 and continues handcrafting stunning pieces to this day. Astonishingly, Tokko Kiln has yet to extinguish their kiln's fire since they first began over 150 years ago, and they still follow the same time-honored traditions in their handcrafting techniques. They are most well-known for their unique transfer methods, creating high-quality patterned pieces with gold or silver glazing. In recent years, Tokko Kiln has begun creating high-quality, hand-thrown earthenware in response to customers' demands.We offer a flat rate of USD $25 for shipping to the U.S., and Free Shipping on orders over USD $199.
