Wave Motif with Pine and Plum Blossom Chawanmushi Bowl
Enjoy delicious chawanmushi, Japanese steamed egg custard, in this beautiful Arita ware chawanmushi bowl.
The pairing of deep navy blue reminiscent of the sea over a faint blue sky is punctuated with a thick gold accent that seems to express a bright horizon. An auspicious wave pattern is highlighted on each side by a double motif of plum blossoms and pine trees.
The round shape of the bowl is inspired by a small gourd called hisago, which elegantly complements the intricate designs.
Versatile in size and shape, this piece can also hold other steamed dishes, soups, and desserts.
