{"product_id":"gjs42","title":"Flat Plate (Small) 180mm - Snow","description":"A fine matte white porcelain six-sun plate. It is perfect for serving a single portion of salad or as a slightly larger side plate.  \nThe plate, with a diameter of 18cm, is called a six-sun plate and is ideal for serving a portion of salad or as a larger side plate.  \nIt is recommended when a five-sun plate feels a bit too small.  \nThe shaping of the clay is done using a technique called \"mizukote,\" where clay is placed into a plaster mold, rotated, and smoothed with water and a trowel.  \nThis method is particularly suitable for forming circular items such as rice bowls, teacups, cups, and plates, requiring the skilled craftsmanship of artisans.  \nAfter shaping, the piece is dried and then trimmed to adjust its form.  \nIn porcelain production, trimming is a crucial step for defining the final shape, requiring a high level of skill.  \nThe dried piece is then bisque-fired at 920 degrees Celsius over two days, after which a specially formulated glaze is individually applied with a brush.  \nThe piece is then reduction-fired at 1300 degrees Celsius over three days to complete the process.  \nThe result is white porcelain reminiscent of Japan's powdery snow, expressing the natural beauty of unglazed white.  \nThis beauty is achieved through a secret glaze formula passed down at the Yazaemon kiln, applied by artisans using brush techniques.  \nThe brilliance of this white, reminiscent of Japan's powder snow, is renowned worldwide.","brand":"ARITA PORCELAIN LAB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48664928125170,"sku":"aplab_000020","price":5057.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/2310\/9106\/files\/download_51e5dcf8-a3c5-47e5-ae51-e90bd4633a2f.jpg?v=1769675899","url":"https:\/\/www.monoya.com\/products\/gjs42","provider":"monoya","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
