Square Individual Plates (Set of 5) – Kara-nuri Tsugaru Lacquer
by Kobayashi Shikki

A refined set of square individual plates finished in traditional Tsugaru lacquer.

Designed for serving sweets or small dishes, these plates reflect the Japanese concept of meimei-zara—individual plates prepared for each guest. Their compact size and elegant surface make them suitable for both everyday dining and hospitality settings.

The surface features Kara-nuri, a signature Tsugaru lacquer technique created through multiple layers of lacquer and polishing, resulting in a distinctive textured pattern with depth and durability.

Each piece is handcrafted in Japan by Kobayashi Shikki, with subtle variations that highlight the character of traditional lacquerware.
