Hokusai Fuji Red Ramen Bowl

This is a Mino ware bowl.

Designed with a motif from Katsushika Hokusai’s The Great Wave off Kanagawa, one of the most iconic prints in his Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji series, this bowl is a true work of art.

The exterior of the bowl is red, creating a beautiful contrast with the colors of Mount Fuji and the waves on the inside. It's so visually striking that you might be tempted to display it as a decorative piece in your home.

However, as this is a functional dish, we highly recommend using it to serve ramen or udon, and truly enjoy traditional Japanese cuisine.

Please note that there may be slight variations in appearance and texture depending on the product. We appreciate your understanding in advance.

Mino ware originated during the Momoyama period, alongside the rise of chanoyu (the Japanese tea ceremony), and is produced mainly in the Toki city area of Gifu Prefecture. It has been particularly beloved by the tea masters of the Momoyama period, when Japan’s wabi-sabi culture first flourished. The representative colors of Mino ware include the elegant pale yellow "Kizeto," the lustrous jet black "Setoguro," the milky white "Shino ware" reminiscent of soft skin, and the rare, unique green designs of "Oribe ware." Today, Mino ware accounts for over half of Japan's domestic production of porcelain tableware.
