This shallow bowl features a coarse, textured surface characteristic of Shigaraki clay, contrasted by a neatly defined circular rim. Natural feldspar and quartz sand within the clay emerge during firing, creating earthy textures and subtle color transitions ranging from warm browns to soft orange tones. Intentional firing marks appear across the surface, adding depth and a sense of raw material presence shaped by heat.

With its shallow depth and moderate size, this bowl is well suited for pasta, salads, or dishes with sauce or broth. It also works comfortably for serving food from shared dishes, bringing a grounded, rustic presence to the table.
