Vintage handmade Japanese plate

Discover the charm of Japanese craftsmanship with this vintage handmade ceramic plate, delicately inscribed with the characters “ほっこり” (hokkori) and “しあわせ” (shiawase).

• “ほっこり” evokes a feeling of warmth, comfort, and quiet joy — like sipping tea on a chilly day or enjoying a peaceful moment at home.

• “しあわせ” means happiness and good fortune — a reminder of life’s simple blessings.

Each plate is entirely handmade, giving it a unique texture and form. The brushwork and natural glaze reflect the timeless beauty of wabi-sabi — an appreciation for imperfection and authenticity.

Perfect as a decorative piece, a small serving dish, or a meaningful gift imbued with the spirit of Japanese culture.
