The Japanese kitchen fascinates
me. Not only is the food insanely tasty, but also it is
beautiful to look at. And to compliment the beautiful food the china obviously
has to be simple, but decorative, to not steal the show from the eye catching
food. Therefore having white china is smart, white usually just makes you
realize that the china exists but doesn’t overtake. Also the shapes of the
china also has to be clean and simple, such as circles or squares. Usually I
would say that I prefer squared china but I have to say that I’ve changed my
mind a little bit, since I visited Cleo‘s blog. Yesterday she wrote about this
fantastic china from British Item. The china called Inori, which “prayer” or “invocation” in Japanese
and usually the names of things don’t really make sense, but I really
understand this name. This piece is a one person 5 piece china set including a
rice bowl, sushi platter, sauce dish, teacup and chopstick
holder. These pieces then can be combined to create a perfect centerpiece that
really draws your eyes attention. When the centerpiece is put together it is 28 cm high and I would think
creates a nice illusion of oriental feel. The whole set will set you back about
£65, so you would probably not have a whole set of 12.
