Lotus bud shaped soy sauce dispenser & plate set – Lovely!

Functionally excellent, durable and easy to clean, each "haas" is crafted in the image of a beautiful lotus bud. Offered in Mino-yaki’s (by Miyama) traditional smooth, glossy porcelain in either Light Blue or White, “haas” are created by thoroughly firing celadon-porcelain at a constant temperature of 1330℃.

There's something a little special about the saucer with Zen ripple design. When you pour soy sauce up to the first circle, it's approx. 5ml (a teaspoon), while the second is 15ml (a tablespoon) and the third is 30ml(2 tablespoons).
