I am a Black Rice Bowl. I’m filled to the brim with excitement to satisfy your hunger.

Curator's Notes 

This Azmaya rice bowl has a distinct angled shape when viewed from the side. Created from the reputable porous clay from Iga city, the bowl has a coarse texture. Hand-formed on a potter’s wheel, each bowl embodies rustic charm and has a traditional artisanal effect. A delightful daily go-to bowl to enjoy rice dishes and soup!
