A long, narrow serving dish with a shallow well. Its fluting runs in close parallel lines down the two long sides, then fans out around the short ends to a scalloped rim. The glaze lies thinly over each rib, so the edges carry a trace of the dark clay beneath.
It is sized for a single line of something: sliced radishes, a few sardines, a row of madeleines. Part of the Banshaku Collection.
Dimensions: 28 x 13 x 1cm.
Handmade ceramic, made in Paris.
