More Details

Kamoshika Douguten

Based in Mie Prefecture, Kamoshika Douguten was launched as the original brand of Yamaguchi Pottery Studio, rooted in the tradition of Banko ware. Believing that true craftsmanship begins with sincerity, its artisans create each piece with care, imagining the people and moments it will accompany. Working closely with local makers, Kamoshika produces everyday tools that bring warmth, comfort, and ease to daily life.

Banko Ware

Originating in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, Banko ware dates back to the mid-Edo period, when merchant and tea enthusiast Nunami Rozan began producing tea utensils in the region. Designated as a National Traditional Craft of Japan in 1979, it is known for its heat resistance and durability, making it ideal for donabe and teapots. Made from semi-porcelain clay rich in minerals, each piece withstands direct heat while retaining warmth efficiently. Balancing strength, practicality, and simple elegance, it remains an essential part of daily life in Japan.

Dinner Plate

Dinner plates are multifunctional for both Japanese and Western-style meals. Serve an individual composed meal this large plate or a one-plate dish like pasta and Japanese curry. You can also use it as a platter for four servings or for plating ingredients for hot pot.

The Plate That Makes Every Curry Better

This oval curry plate has quickly become one of my everyday favorites. I reach for it whenever I serve curry (of course!), but also for pasta, rice bowls, and any dish with sauce. It’s thoughtfully designed, beautiful on the table, and genuinely comfortable to use. Here’s why I love it so much.

Nami’s Pick portrait

1. Easy to Scoop, Easy to Enjoy

The gentle curve and shallow depth are just right. I can easily scoop rice and curry together without chasing food around the plate, which makes every bite feel effortless and satisfying.

It’s one of those small details you don’t realize you need—until you use it. After that, it’s hard to go back to flat plates that make saucy dishes harder to enjoy.

2. Wide Rim for a Secure Hold

I really appreciate the wide rim. It makes the plate easy and comfortable to hold, even when carrying a generous portion.

Whether I’m serving dinner to my family or bringing plates from the kitchen to the table, it feels stable and well-balanced in my hands. That sense of security makes everyday serving feel smooth and stress-free.

3. Perfect for Everyday Meals

While it’s ideal for Japanese curry, this plate is incredibly versatile. I use it for pasta, rice bowls, stews, and other saucy dishes we enjoy regularly.

It fits seamlessly into everyday meals, yet still looks special enough when I’m serving guests. If you’re looking for a plate that’s practical, beautiful, and a joy to use day after day, this one is truly a keeper.

FAQ

Are the small dents, pinholes, or texture marks on this ceramic piece a defect?

No. These marks are normal characteristics of handcrafted Japanese ceramics, formed during shaping, glazing, or firing in small kilns. Subtle dents, tiny pinholes, and slight texture variations are part of the artisan process — not defects. If you see clear cracks, chips, or peeling glaze, please email support@jocgoods.pro with photos.

Are the small black or dark specks in the glaze safe?

Yes, the dark specks are safe. They are natural iron minerals in the clay that react during high-temperature firing, leaving small marks under the glaze. They do not affect food safety, durability, or performance, and are part of the organic character of handmade Japanese pottery.

Do your ceramic dishes contain lead or cadmium?

Some glazed ceramic pieces may contain trace amounts of lead or cadmium sealed beneath the glaze, at levels safe for food use. Japanese ceramic tableware is regulated under the Food Sanitation Act, which sets leaching limits for lead and cadmium in glazed tableware. Testing standards differ by country, so we cannot guarantee compliance with every regional regulation.

Why does each handcrafted bowl or plate look slightly different from the photo?

Each piece is shaped, glazed, and fired by hand in small artisan kilns across Japan, so subtle differences in color, glaze pattern, weight, and even rim shape are expected. No two pieces are identical. This natural variation is what makes each item one of a kind, not a quality flaw.

Even if a ceramic piece is dishwasher safe, should I still hand-wash it?

Dishwasher-safe pieces can go in the dishwasher, and doing so will not damage the glaze. That said, ceramic (earthenware) is more prone to chipping than porcelain, and pieces can knock against the rack or other dishes while loading and unloading — which is the most common cause of small chips. For longevity, hand-washing with warm water and a soft sponge is gentler.

Can I add a gift message to my order?

Yes. You may add a personalized gift message of up to 250 characters at checkout — it is printed on a card and included inside the package. Prices and order details are never shown on the card or anywhere in the shipment, so the recipient sees only your message and the gift itself.

Will my order be wrapped as a gift?

Yes. Every JOC Goods order is wrapped in a traditional Japanese furoshiki cloth before shipping at no extra charge — both gifts and personal orders. If your order includes many or large items, the furoshiki may be packed inside the box rather than wrapped around them. Prices are never included in any shipment.
