Hokusai Red Fuji Sauce Dish

€14.95

The Hokusai Red Fuji Sauce Dish is based on South Wind, Clear Sky, the ukiyo-e print from Hokusai's Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji that shows the mountain glowing red in the early morning light. Mt. Fuji fills most of the small porcelain plate, its red slopes streaked with white snow near the peak, under a deep blue sky lined with rows of white clouds. A band of green forest dotted in dark green runs along the base. In Japan, a red Fuji is considered a sign of good fortune and prosperity. Made at Seikou Kiln, the dish is Kutani ware, a tradition known for its bold overglaze enamels. This Japanese sauce dish works as a sauce plate for soy sauce with sushi or sashimi, and it also holds condiments or small sweets. When not in use, it can be set out on a shelf as a small piece of art. Next to plain or blue-and-white Japanese dishware, the red mountain makes a bright accent. Explore our Sauce Dishes collection to add more color and variety to your table.
