About the Work
 
Black with a texture reminiscent of aged metal, this piece reveals a subtle sparkle here and there, lending it a quiet elegance. Its rustic surface enhances the presentation of anything placed upon it. With use, the plate develops a beautiful, wet-looking gloss — a patina that deepens its charm over time. The more you use it, the more it becomes your own. One striking feature is the gently bent edge. Where should it face? The artist, Takada, places it at the bottom left, but encourages you to position it however you feel inspired.
