Japanese Porcelain, White Chrysanthemum Bean Dish, 61x22mm
61 x 22mm: the smallest white chrysanthemum dish on the container, a personal soy dish with a petal edge.
Pre-order: arriving in the UK in late October 2026
This porcelain bean dish is 61mm across and 22mm high, with a petal-fluted rim in the shape of a chrysanthemum. It is sized for one person's soy sauce, a dab of wasabi or a single sweet.
Why Chefs Choose This
- Right-sized for soy: shallow enough that soy does not pool too deep
- One per guest: low price makes a full set easy
- Petal rim: a traditional shape that adds charm to a simple table
- Porcelain white: soy, wasabi and ginger all read sharply
How to Use
- Soy sauce: one per guest for sushi and sashimi
- Condiments: wasabi, grated ginger or karashi mustard
- Salt and spice: flaky salt, sansho or shichimi for tempura
- Sweets: a single chocolate or a piece of candied fruit
Mamezara (豆皿), or bean dishes, are Japan's smallest plates, and households collect them in dozens of shapes. The chrysanthemum (kiku) form, with its fluted petal rim, is one of the classics, and the flower has long been a symbol in Japan, including as the imperial emblem.
Is this the right size for soy sauce?
Yes. At 61 x 22mm it is a classic individual soy dish: enough for dipping sushi or sashimi without pouring too much. It also works for wasabi, pickled ginger or salt alongside tempura. For a slightly larger portion, the 75 x 35mm version on the same container is deeper.

Is it dishwasher and microwave safe?
We are waiting on the maker's care guidance and will add it here before the stock lands, so we are not going to guess. Until it arrives, hand washing in warm soapy water with a soft sponge is the safe choice for glazed Japanese tableware. Let it dry fully before stacking or putting it away.
When will my pre-order arrive?
This dish is on a container due in the UK in late October 2026. Order now to reserve one, and we will send it out once the stock has landed and been checked in. If the arrival date moves, we will let you know.
