Nishiki Peony Mino Ware Donburi Rice Bowl with Lid S
This small-sized Japanese donburi rice bowl features peonies, framed by dark blue, lattice-like patterns, all rendered in the traditional nishiki-e style. Nishiki-e, meaning “brocade picture,” is a multi-colored woodblock print technique that revolutionized ukiyo-e during the Edo period (1603 CE–1868 CE), when most prints were in black and white.
The lid helps keep the food warm and steams the ingredients, ensuring the dish remains flavorful. It also adds a touch of elegance, making it perfect for hosting guests.
The bowl is perfect for a variety of donburi dishes, such as gyudon, oyakodon, and for noodle dishes like udon or soba. It may be slightly small for ramen if you wish to add different toppings.
Mino ware boasts a remarkable variety of styles and is celebrated for its rich traditional heritage, while also excelling in the production of contemporary pottery. It is widely distributed in Japan, yet retains a very high quality, which makes it a wonderful choice for daily use.
