A small plate finished in a luminous blue glaze, inspired by the quiet rarity of a blue moon. Subtle variations in tone move gently across the surface, giving each piece a soft, shifting presence. The clean, flat form keeps the focus on the glaze, allowing light and shadow to define its character.

Ideal for small bites, sweets, or condiments. It pairs well with wagashi, pickles, or a single piece of fruit, bringing a calm accent to the table.

About Moonlight

This collection of vessels features a luminous blue glaze inspired by the rare beauty of a “Blue Moon”, a phenomenon that occurs only occasionally, when an extra full moon appears within a single month. In Japan, the moon is often described through subtle shifts in colour, including expressions such as a white moon or a blue moon, reflecting its changing presence.

*Because each piece is handmade, variations in clay and glaze can affect the final size and weight.

All dimensions are taken from the widest or highest point of the sample piece, unless stated otherwise.

Care

Unless otherwise noted above, all items can be used following the general guidelines below. These suggestions help ensure the longevity of each piece and maintain its appearance over time.

Dishwasher:
Our items are dishwasher-safe; however, we highly recommend placing them separately and leaving at least one empty slot between pieces. This helps prevent accidental damage caused by high-pressure water or collisions inside the machine.

Microwave:
Most items are microwave-safe. However, please avoid using any piece that includes metal elements (such as gold or silver accents, or Kintsugi repairs involving metal) as they may spark or cause a fire.

Oven:
We do not recommend using any of our items in an oven.

How Oogoya pieces are made

  • Design

    Designed for daily use, these pieces are comfortable, functional, and aesthetically balanced. The minimal, timeless design blends into modern homes while echoing the rich craftsmanship of this ancient Japanese kiln town.

  • Material

    Shigaraki clay is known for its warm tones, coarse texture, natural strength, and its ability to form large-scale pieces. We carefully select the most suitable clay from Shigaraki or nearby regions, ensuring its subtle variations give every item a unique presence that ages beautifully.

  • Crafting

    Every shape, whether hand-thrown or molded, is created using traditional techniques guided by our experienced artisans. Their meticulous care and the small variations reflecting the maker's hand fill each piece with unique soul and individuality.

  • Firing

    Firing in modern and traditional kilns at various temperatures enhances the clay’s texture and glazing effects. Iron spots, gradients, and slight natural warping are authentic signatures, no one piece is exactly the same, adding layers of uniqueness to Shigaraki-ware.
