Ogawa is known for allowing the natural character of Shigaraki clay to remain present while introducing refined, modern surface treatments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plate features a deep, earthy black-brown surface accented with expressive silver brushwork. Sweeping areas of silver move across the rim like spontaneous strokes of ink, creating a beautiful contrast against the dark, subtly textured clay. Rather than appearing purely decorative, the silver retains the movement of the artist's hand, giving each plate its own individual composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIts restrained palette and irregular, organic form give the piece a distinctly contemporary presence while preserving the warmth and materiality characteristic of Shigaraki pottery. The metallic details catch and shift with the light, making the plate especially striking when paired with food.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eØ 8\" x H .75\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFood-safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandp-crafted in Shiga Prefecture, Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Norikazu Ogawa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48123717845181,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/5217\/3245\/files\/IMG_3790_a94ef3b9-27a4-4035-918b-a5f2ddee6ebf.jpg?v=1787088527","url":"https:\/\/www.earthenarchive.com\/products\/japanese-silver-brush-shigaraki-plate","provider":"EarthenArchive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
