Plate "chrysanthemum" D 16cm TY Palace - White Grey
€36.00
Aritayaki is a type of Japanese pottery that has its roots in the ancient ceramic city of Arita, located on the island of Kyushu in southern Japan. It was in this city, in 1616, that Koreans introduced the art of pottery to Japan. Arita still produces ceramics made by local artisans using the distinctive ingredient of clay made from crushed stone. Inspired by the deep experience and skills of the local artisans of Arita, designer and creative director Teruhiro Yanagihara has developed a complete new brand of ceramics for Momota-Touen Corporation. Named after its origins, the 1616 / Arita Japan products are produced in the same factories as the original Arita pottery but take a completely different design approach. 1616 / Arita Japan stands for contemporary products that can be used every day, even though they are made with the extraordinary finish, finesse, and durability of original Arita items.
Following the tradition of Arita pottery, Teruhiro Yanagihara has developed a new series of ceramics using the traditional technique of clay made from crushed stone, although the composition is different. The result is a type of high-density clay that makes pottery items extremely strong and resistant to heat and stains, even without glaze.
You might fear that unglazed pottery could absorb liquids. Not at all! Since the plate is made from high-density clay, you don't have to worry about oil or soy penetration. (However, we recommend washing the plates as soon as possible after you are done using them.)
A special agent added to the clay gives the Standard series a very characteristic light gray and matte tone. In fact, this plate is made of clay with a density 1.8 times higher than that of classic Japanese porcelains, giving it the strength related to everyday use (dishwasher, microwave...)
The TY palace plate of 1616 resembles a large flower. It was specially designed for a traditional prestigious hotel, the "Palace Hotel Tokyo" established in 1961. The hotel represents one of the prestigious Japanese hotels. Many personalities from all over the world love this hotel. 1616 / arita japan is officially recognized as an appropriate brand for this luxury hotel. This series of TY palace plates was designed when 1616 arita opened its store at the "Palace Hotel Tokyo". The design was inspired by the grand blooming of the chrysanthemum. The chrysanthemum is a symbol of the Japanese imperial family.
