{"product_id":"gjs39","title":"Side Plate 145mm - Platinum","description":"A sophisticated platinum side plate, which can also be used as a dessert plate or bread plate.  \nThe plate, with a diameter of 15cm, is referred to as a \"5-sun plate\" and is a convenient size for use as a side plate, enhancing dishes of both Japanese and Western cuisines.  \nIt can also be used as a dessert or bread plate.  \nThe forming of the base material is done using a technique called \"mizukote,\" where clay is placed into a plaster mold, rotated, and shaped by hand with the use of water to smooth the surface.  \nThis method is primarily suitable for forming round items such as rice bowls, teacups, cups, and plates, requiring the skilled techniques of experienced artisans.  \nAfterward, the piece is dried and trimmed to refine its shape.  \nIn porcelain crafting, the final trimming process is crucial for shaping the piece, necessitating expert craftsmanship.  \nThe shaped base is then bisque-fired at 920°C over two days, followed by the application of a unique glaze individually brushed on by hand, and reduction-fired at 1300°C over three days.  \nInspired by the concept of Japan's powder snow, the piece is expressed in an eternally radiant and profound \"platinum.\"  \nUsing a secret technique passed down at the Yasemon Kiln, the platinum is formulated and applied by artisans using a brush, creating nuanced shading and a deep luster.  \nWhile the finish resembles the brilliance of silver, it does not tarnish or blacken like silver and is dishwasher safe.  \nFinally, the platinum is overglazed and fired at 800°C, completing the piece.","brand":"ARITA PORCELAIN LAB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48664927961330,"sku":"aplab_000017","price":5057.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/2310\/9106\/files\/download_50bc9ca6-ca3b-43e7-93df-e8e76a9ba8fc.jpg?v=1769675898","url":"https:\/\/www.monoya.com\/products\/gjs39","provider":"monoya","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
