These ceramic dishes prominently feature the 'Tai' (Sea bream) in a fresh, bright blue pattern. Tai are seen as a symbol of good luck, as their name sounds similar to 'Omedetai' (Lucky). Tai is often served on celebratory occasions in Japan, and the pattern on these bowls are a great way to channel that luck for any meal or occasion. This size is best for sauces or side dishes for one. Being dishwasher and microwave safe, these are durable and easy to care for. Designed and made in Japan.
