Contemporary porcelain for appreciating the present

The large plate can be used for main dishes or to serve large portions of salads or pastas for sharing with friends and family while the smaller size can be used for individual servings.
The floral motif you see here is a traditional design that has been used by the Imamura Family for hundreds of years.

About
The Jicon brand of porcelain is a collaboration between designer Oji Masanori and the 350-year old Imamura porcelain studio. Located in Saga prefecture and specializing in Arita-yaki porcelain, Jicon was established with the objective of reinterpreting many traditional styles of Japanese ceramics for the modern household.
Jicon (磁今) are a combination of the words now, or current (今) and the word for porcelain (磁). It was also intended to overlap with a homonym (爾今) which is a Buddhist term that means live in the present.
