"Mille" in Italian means one thousand or many. "Mille" [12 rice bowl] has been planned hoping that it represents good luck. Actually, there is a folding fan like relief that has many engraved curvy pleats on the surface (from the rim towards the foot). It makes the table look elegant and gorgeous when rice is served in it. We are also particular about the color glazes. The exquisitely colored glazes with white speckles give depth and dynamics to the rice bowls. Why don't you get one to enjoy eating tasty boiled rice in a stylish way?
