Majo Gold Leaf | Square Rim Plate, 31cm (3 Colours)
$163.68
The Majo Square Rim Plate with gold leaf is a large-format dishwasher-safe lacquer glass plate crafted by Japanese lacquer artisan Yoshihiko Fujii, finished with genuine gold leaf in three colourways. At 315mm square, it is an increasingly rare format as glass manufacturers worldwide scale back production of plates over 30cm.
Key Features
- Colour-shifting Majo pigment: colour changes with the angle and light.
- Gold leaf finish: genuine gold leaf applied by hand.
- Large-format 31cm square: an increasingly rare size in glass tableware.
- Dishwasher safe: practical for everyday and special-occasion use.
Ideal Uses
Ideal as a large centrepiece serving plate for mains or shared dishes.
Yoshihiko Fujii is a Japanese lacquer (urushi) artisan who reinterprets traditional maki-e and gold-leaf techniques for contemporary Western-style tableware. Each piece is hand-finished in Japan, layering lacquer and metallic leaf over a glass base to create colour and shimmer that shift with the angle of light.
