Each year at springtime, Japan celebrates the season's first appearance of its cherry blossoms. This centuries-old tradition is known as the Hanami festival, when people all over Japan gather beneath Sakura (cherry blossom) trees to admire the all too brief lifespan of these beautiful flowers. Sakura has traditionally been a prominent motif in Japanese design, including pottery.

Our genuine Japanese bowl honors this enduring tradition with a modern take on the Sakura theme. Made of durable microwave and dishwasher safe ceramicware, this Japanese serving bowl is coated all over with a shiny mottled black glaze. It features a simple white cherry blossom-inspired line drawing on the inside. Then, the lines radiate from center to edge of the bowl.

The unique, rounded bowl is completely smooth, and comforting to hold. With a capacity 26 fluid ounces, it's ideal for an individual serving of appetizers and noodle-based dishes, as well as ice creams and puddings.

As part of the Sunlit Sakura Collection, this Japanese ceramic bowl pairs well with other matching pieces like our 7-1/4 Inch Sunlit Sakura Rectangular Japanese Plate.
