Celestial Charm in Every Bite – Cosmos Small Plate Set for Elegant Side Servings

Product Description

Small in size, infinite in expression—the Cosmos Plate Set (Small) captures the wonder of the universe in the palm of your hand. Made in Japan using high-quality porcelain, each plate is glazed with a unique marbled pattern in one of three hues: a vibrant red, a smoky charcoal, and a cool blue with soft yellow accents. These organic designs are born from a blend of chance and artisan control, making each dish one-of-a-kind.

At 4.7 inches (120 mm) wide and 1 inch (25 mm) deep, these plates are ideal for presenting wagashi, macarons, dipping sauces, nuts, or condiments with intention. The white porcelain base brightens the tabletop and creates stunning contrast, allowing your food to visually stand out even in small portions. Lightweight and stackable, they're suited for casual meals, festive gatherings, or moments of hospitality.

The Cosmos series is known for blending refined aesthetics with everyday functionality. These small plates exemplify that philosophy—simple, stylish, and endlessly versatile. Each piece is kiln-fired and hand-inspected to ensure quality, while the slightly curved form offers a pleasant hold and visual depth. Made by Table Talk Presents, the set reflects the beauty of imperfection and the charm of hand-glazed Japanese tableware.

Whether you’re serving traditional sweets or contemporary desserts, the Cosmos Plate Set (Small) makes every moment feel a little more thoughtful—perfect for gifting or daily delight.

FAQs

All you need to know about Mino Ware and the Gifu Prefecture.

What makes Mino ware different from other Japanese ceramics?

Mino ware (美濃焼) is Japan’s most produced ceramic, yet each piece feels deeply personal. Unlike single-style pottery, Mino ware encompasses over 15 diverse styles—like Shino, Oribe, and Setoguro—each with its own texture, glaze, and aesthetic. It’s this versatility, rooted in centuries of tradition, that sets it apart and makes it suitable for both modern and traditional dining.

Where is Mino ware made?

Mino ware originates from Gifu Prefecture (岐阜県), specifically the cities of Toki, Tajimi, and Mizunami. This region has ideal clay, abundant natural resources, and a rich history of ceramic production that dates back over 1,300 years. The area is known as Japan’s pottery capital for a reason—it’s where history, artistry, and innovation meet.

Is each piece of Mino ware handmade?

Yes, many Mino ware items are handcrafted by skilled artisans who continue centuries-old techniques. Even in modern kilns, the process involves hand-glazing, unique firing methods, and a deep respect for natural imperfections. This means no two pieces are exactly alike—each one carries the character of the maker and the spirit of the region.

Can I use Mino ware every day?

Absolutely. Mino ware was designed for daily use. It’s durable, practical, and microwave- and dishwasher-safe (unless otherwise noted). Its organic forms and rich glazes make even the simplest meals feel special, turning your everyday table into a moment of quiet beauty.

Why is Gifu Prefecture so famous for pottery?

Gifu’s unique geography offers everything potters need—high-quality clay, fresh water, and abundant firewood. But beyond resources, it’s the region’s dedication to preserving craftsmanship that stands out. Gifu is home to countless workshops, master potters, and ceramic festivals that continue to celebrate and innovate the Mino ware tradition.
