Nabeshima Celadon Porcelain Plate - Imari

The color of the celadon is beautiful.
The form of the plate has been designed based on a plum design, considered the most iconic and a standard in Japanese art history.
Made using Nabeshima celadon glaze, the only natural celadon that currently exists in Japan. Loved over long periods, natural Nabeshima celadon has particularly beautiful emerald green hues that are almost transparent. A characteristic is the soft texture generated by the thick glaze.
It comes in a stylish wooden box, making it the perfect gift.

So beautiful

Very smooth surface and the color is amazing. Touch like a piece of well polished jade. Wish they have pale pink color as well.

Nabeshima ware

The export of Japanese ware from the Imari region to the rest of the world began during the latter half of the 17thcentury. At the time, because the port from which such ware was shipped was called “Imari,” the general term for pottery exported from Imari became “Imari ware,” a name that ultimately became widely known overseas. 

Outside of Japan, “Nabeshima ware” made in the Imari region is often called “Imari ware.” However, even among the various types of Imari ware, Nabeshima ware occupies a special place because during the Edo Period, it was made specifically as gifts presented only to shoguns and feudal lords. For this reason, only genuinely talented craftsmen were chosen to create Nabeshima ware, using undisclosed techniques in secret kilns. Embodying such traditions and techniques that have been carried on to this day, Nabeshima ware is said to be the most exquisite kind of porcelain in Japan, with an elegance and refinement fit for nobility.
