Akae Floral Yakumi Dish

Introduce a touch of traditional Japanese artistry to your table with our Akae Floral Yakumi Dish. This charming small plate combines classic design elements with practical functionality, making it perfect for serving condiments, small appetizers, or as a decorative accent piece.

This shallow dish is ideally sized for individual servings of soy sauce, wasabi, pickled ginger, or other accompaniments to your meal. Its low profile and wide rim make it easy to use and clean.

The dish features a beautiful hand-painted design in the akae (red painting) style, a traditional Japanese ceramic decoration technique. The center of the plate showcases delicate red flowers, likely peonies or camellias, with green leaves, creating a vibrant and eye-catching focal point. These floral motifs are symbols of beauty and renewal in Japanese culture.

Surrounding the central design is a striking emerald green border with a textured pattern reminiscent of bamboo or rattan. This adds a touch of natural elegance and provides a beautiful contrast to the creamy background and red floral elements.

The base color of the dish is a warm, creamy off-white, which serves as the perfect canvas for the vibrant painted elements. This neutral backdrop enhances the richness of the green and red pigments, making the design truly pop.
