Bon Plate 300mm

The Majestic Beauty of Wood
Eita Kitayama's Wood Plate: Where Elegance Meets Impact

This piece immediately conveys that in woodworking, the expression begins with the very selection of the timber.
Eita Kitayama, who quietly crafts everyday tools in a land blessed with water and trees. His background in architecture lends a refined precision, complemented by organic edges, creating a harmonious blend of substantial presence (characteristic of its large diameter) and quiet elegance.
While wooden plates can sometimes be challenging to handle in demanding professional settings, their exceptional craftsmanship and dignified presence continue to captivate many chefs and enthusiasts alike.
Ideal as a serving platter for main dishes, a single-plate meal, or a communal dish in the center of the table. Its distinct rim adds dimension to your cuisine, making it a focal point of any dining experience.

Soft-toned wood is enhanced with natural botanical dyes, drawing out its inherent beauty. The gentle texture unique to natural materials is enriched by the deep hues created through the dyeing process.
A glass coating is applied, preserving the natural texture of the wood while making it durable and easy for everyday use.
