Hagi Ware Wara Glaze Iron Splash Plates (Set of 2)
With their ash-burnished glow and unexpected markings, these small plates from Yamato Harunobu Shoroku Kiln offer a quiet tension between form and chance. Each plate is glazed with wara—the straw ash that defines Hagi’s rustic palette—then touched with a splash of iron oxide that leaves behind a singular, wind-swept trace across the surface.
The result is a gentle drama: soft gradients of brown and ivory framing a fleeting moment of unpredictability. Slightly cupped and low in profile, the plates suit small servings with subtle presence, whether for salt-cured pickles or after-dinner sweets.
Each set includes two plates—similar in spirit, never in repetition.
