Handcrafted detail shines through: Teshio Kaizukushi Hamaguri
Introducing Kaizukushi Hamaguri from Teshio, POTPURRI's small-plate collection. Bold splashes capture a breaking wave over a glaze in soft, muted colours.
Layered glazes bring both pattern and texture to enjoy.
Glossy glaze is drizzled in lines and flicked across a matt base to create bold splashes. Each small plate has its own expression, offering texture as well as pattern to enjoy.
A generously sized small plate with a useful depth
As practical as it is charming, this generously sized small plate suits snacks and pickles. Its gentle depth also makes it useful for soy sauce, condiments or sweets.
Charming and made to last
Fired at approximately 1,200°C, these dishes are dishwasher and microwave safe, making them easy to enjoy at the everyday table.
A thoughtful wedding gift
Because the two halves of a hamaguri shell fit together perfectly, the clam is traditionally a symbol of a harmonious marriage. The plate comes in a box bearing the Teshio mark, wrapped with a band featuring our salt-crystal logo.
The craft of making by hand
From the first shaping to the final firing, every Kaizukushi piece reflects the care of its makers.
After carving several clay models to explore the shape, we carve the chosen form in plaster. We take a mold from it and pour in clay to produce the pieces. The formed bodies are dried, trimmed smooth, bisque-fired, glazed, and fired again. Through these many stages, each piece comes to life as tableware.
About Teshio, POTPURRI's small-plate brand
Named after the teshio-zara, considered one possible origin of small Japanese plates, Teshio is a brand that puts heartfelt care into these little dishes.
Long ago, as part of beliefs associated with salt, a small dish of salt was placed in the corner of a dining tray to purify the meal setting. This little dish, which fits in the palm of a hand, is called a teshio-zara.
Over time, these small plates became pieces for enjoying food. Their presence adds character to the table.
We fire each piece in our Tokyo workshop and send it out with the hope that its owner will cherish it and enjoy using it for years.
The Kaizukushi shell collection offers different sizes, shapes and patterns across its colours, inviting you to enjoy each variation.
Inspired by the auspicious hamaguri clam, this generously sized small plate captures the splash of a breaking wave in bold strokes over a softly coloured glaze.
Every piece has a different expression, making the process of picking one out especially enjoyable.
