[LARGE PLATE (PLATTER)] KYO-YUZEN - AYA | PRINTING AND KYO-YUZEN ENGRAVING| SANSAI STUDIO

Plate Characteristic 1

Keeping the beautiful design of Kyoto Yuzen

This plate is one of the products that originated from the yuzen patterns applied to kimonos. It is an item that allows you to easily incorporate the gorgeous world of Kyo Yuzen into your daily life.

Kyo-yuzen is a dyed textile produced by hand-dyeing Japanese paintings that became popular during the Edo period (1603-1868). In the Meiji period (1868-1912), "katazome Yuzen," using stencils was born. The molds for the katazome Yuzen, are made by KYOTO YUZEN ENGRAVINGS. We create a variety of delicate and beautiful products using "Kirigata", a process in which designs are engraved by hand using tools such as small knives and round grippers, and laser processing, in which designs are engraved using design data that we have cultivated over the years.

Plate Characteristic 2

A gorgeous gem combining various designs

The plates are decorated with beautiful flowers such as peonies and cherry blossoms, as well as designs incorporated into furisode (long-sleeved kimono) patterns, such as shell makers' barrels for storing shell-matching implements. The patterns are laid out in layers, giving a very elegant and gorgeous impression. The red, blue, and white coloring applied in key places also adds a touch of glamour.

Since the pattern is expressed by engraving, the surface has fine irregularities. When you touch it with your finger, you can see that it is firm and deep. Each pattern stands out more and feels more powerful.

Although the design itself has a strong Japanese image, it goes well with Western food when serving dishes. It can be enjoyed in different atmospheres depending on how it is used.

Plate Characteristic 3

Vivid! The dining table becomes more gorgeous

As a flat plate without a rim, it is suitable for serving dishes without liquid. It can be used as a dish for serving main dishes, salads, and side dishes, as well as for serving cakes and individually wrapped sweets at teatime or when guests are over.

Just by placing it on the table, it gives a gorgeous impression. If you leave a blank space for serving, both the plate and the dish will be "attractive" and useful!

While the texture of the wood is preserved, the surface of the dish is coated with glass. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about oil stains and spots. Another key point is that you can use the dish every day without worrying, as it will not break even if dropped like a glass dish.

Detail of plate 1

Large enough and light enough to handle

The diameter of the dish is approximately 10.83 in. (27.5 cm), and although it is approximately 0.79 in. (2 cm) high, its surface is nearly flat. Weighing only about 0.51 lbs (230g), the platter, which tends to be heavy, is light, as only wood can make it. It is not thick, so cleaning up is not a chore.

The reverse side is very smooth and features a beautiful grain. In contrast to the glamorous front side, the simple design brings out the best of the wood itself. The center of the piece is dug down in a circular shape to enhance stability.

The plates are not only easy to use, but also beautiful from all angles, making your dining table more colorful every day.
