I am a Jicon Meshi-Wan bowl. My mom once told me that every grain of rice left uneaten represents a tear from a farmer whose efforts were unappreciated. So eat up! Besides, I look my best when I’m spotless anyway.

Curator's Notes

Meals can taste significantly better when served on the right dinnerware. Often, white surfaces can be the perfect backdrop to highlight a delicious meal. We love the Jicon porcelain dinnerware pieces for this exact reason. Beautifully crafted, distinct yet subtle, but most importantly, never distracting. We're also crazy about the antique rim.
