Small Shallow Usuzumi Oval Bowl

Description

I am a Small Shallow Usuzumi Oval Bowl. What food am I going to sail away with? Come on a voyage to find out.

Curator’s Notes

We love both the size and depth of this shallow bowl reminiscent of a boat because it’s the perfect addition to any meal. The low profile allows the food to truly shine, while the beautiful usuzumi style lacquer serves as the perfect backdrop to side dishes like pickled vegetables or a dainty dessert.
