Product description
The gesture
Its slightly curved shape and subtle central hollow naturally cradle food or a small bowl placed on top, a plate designed to accommodate rather than simply present.
Why it is different
The wood grain, visible and continuous across the surface, gives each piece its own unique character. The thin rim and refined shape make it easy to handle, whether set down or held in the hand—something that more rigid ceramic does not allow in the same way.
Why a wooden plate rather than ceramic
Designed to serve everything from a main course to a presentation of sashimi or delicate dishes, it brings a warmth to the table that ceramic lacks. An understated object that leaves all the room for the dish it holds.
Why I chose it
“I loved this plate because it shows that a beautiful table doesn't need to be complicated. The wood immediately brings a sense of warmth and the shape remains very simple. Paired with the bowl from the same collection, it allows for a cohesive table setting, but it also works perfectly on its own. A discreet object that lets the food take center stage.”
You will love it if
- you like combining pieces from the same collection (with the Hikiyose bowl, for example) or using it on its own
- you are looking for a plate for delicate presentations: sashimi, cold dishes
- you are drawn to the warmth of wood at the table, rather than ceramic
- you are prepared for careful maintenance: hand wash, no dishwasher
It is probably not for you if
- you are looking for a plate for everyday hot meals that is dishwasher safe
- you prefer ceramic for its easier maintenance
In practice
Diameter 22.5 cm, made of turned wood. Hand wash, dry immediately, avoid dishwashers and prolonged soaking. With use, the wood develops a patina and reveals its grain further.
An object designed to last
Like the Hikiyose bowl, this plate is intended to develop a patina over time, provided it receives simple care: hand washing and immediate drying.
