Hachi-Kutani Hanazume Sauce Plate

This porcelain sauce plate features hanazume—a traditional Kutani pattern meaning “filled with flowers”—rendered in soft white. The intricate floral design gives the impression of blossoms blooming all at once, creating a sense of gentle abundance.

While Kutani ware is loved for its vibrant colors, the hachi-kutani series features sauce plates all in white. Thick overglaze paint with traditional Japanese paints brings out a sense of luxury. The porcelain is painted with an elegant traditional pattern, inspired by the snow of Hakusan (Mt. Hakusan), and is trimmed with a rusty brown iron glaze.

This small plate can be used for sauce, condiments, pickles, and other small items such as accessories. It has a beautiful and simple design that matches any item. There are eight different patterns in total, so you can choose your favorite one or use different patterns with your family.
