1. Design & Aesthetic Features

• Tokusa Pattern : The striking blue vertical lines radiating from the center represent the "Tokusa" (十草, Japanese horsetail)

motif, a timeless and classic pattern in traditional Japanese tableware.

• Flower-Shaped Rim : The wavy, scalloped rim creates a beautiful, petal-like silhouette when viewed from above.

The edges are lined with a subtle brown iron glaze, adding a rustic yet refined contrast.

2. Size & Practical Applications

• Dimensions : It measures 3.5"D x 1.65"H (approximately 8.9 cm in diameter and 4.2 cm in height).

• Deep Dipping Bowl : Thanks to its 1.65-inch depth, it is much more versatile than flat sauce dishes,

easily holding liquids and semi-solid condiments.

• Recommended Uses:• Sauces & Dips : Perfect for dumpling soy sauce, ponzu, katsu sauce, or a dollop of wasabi.

• Japanese Side Dishes (Kobachi) : Ideal for serving single portions of pickled vegetables

(tsukemono), rakkyo (pickled leek), or sushi ginger.

• Korean Side Dishes (Banchan) : Great for small, flavorful sides such as salted seafood

(jeotgal) or pickled garlic/plums.

Product Overview

Give a small accompaniment a patterned setting with the KF535-FU blue Tokusa ceramic side dish. The Japanese horsetail pattern adds linear detail around the serving piece, bringing a familiar decorative motif to a rice, sushi or hot-pot setting. Its 4-fluid-ounce capacity suits a modest portion of pickles, a dipping sauce or another side served separately from the main course.

The dish measures 3½ inches in diameter and 1.65 inches high. Made in Japan, the ceramic is safe for the microwave and dishwasher. Place it beside a rice bowl or serving plate to keep the accompaniment within reach, with chopsticks alongside the main dish. Simple white pieces let the blue Tokusa pattern stand out, while other blue dinnerware can repeat the color across a coordinated tabletop.
