Blue Aohagi Side Plate

This versatile plate beautifully features the natural textures and hues of Shigaraki pottery. It’s offered by Homeland, a brand dedicated to providing kitchen items that become cherished tools in everyday life, and crafted in collaboration with Hissan Pottery, a renowned Shigaraki ware kiln. The delicate variations of blue in aohagi—from the soft light of a clear sky to the deep navy of night—are subtly influenced by the thickness of the glaze and slight differences in temperature. Highly versatile and ideally sized as an extra plate for serving any side dish such as salads, appetizers, sushi or desserts, its durability makes it suitable for long-term use. The surface features a mirror-like glaze and is resistant to scratches, even when using metal cutlery.
