A boxed ceramic Japanese rice bowl gift set features 5 bowls in a rich deep navy blue background with a contrasting pink sakura cherry blossom design. The glazes have been layered to give a slightly textured surface with contrasting finishes.
The cherry blossom, or sakura, is one of the most symbolic motifs in Japanese art, culture, and philosophy. This delicate flower represents beauty, renewal, and the fleeting nature of life, appearing in various forms of art, ceramics, fashion, and design.
Japanese rice bowls are small and easy to hold, the depth of the bowl keeps rice warm and makes it convenient to use with chopsticks. The versatile size of this bowl means it can be used for serving side dishes, soup, noodles, desserts and dips.
