These small plates were made at the Toshin-gama kiln in OkinawaThe work of Toshin-gama is a modern representation of the Tsuboya style. Tsuboya once was the centre of ceramic production in Naha, the Okinawan capital. As the city grew, it became harder to operate wood burning kilns. But it remains the cultural home of Okinawan ceramics, and was the place where Masakazu Soma, the lead potter of Toshin-gama, was trained. He now produces works from a base in Yomitan, and is true to the natural and pattern design motifs of Tsuboya ware.These plates are 3 sun in the old unit of Japanese measurement used for ceramics. As one sun is 3.03cm, they are around 9cm in diameter. Each are about 2.6cm in height, and weigh 100g.
