The author has been using rice bowls purchased at 100-yen shops for a long time. I am satisfied with the appearance and durability, but sometimes I want to take the plunge and buy a new one. I found a unique rice bowl from MUJI and bought it.


A series product called " Hasami ware Kurawanka rice bowl". "Kurawanka bowl" is a bowl derived from the fact that merchants used it when eating on board during the Edo period. The hill is high and heavy so that it will not fall even on a ship. Certainly, it is quite high compared to ordinary bowls. The smooth appearance adds a fashionable atmosphere to the dining table. It has a sense of stability, so it's a good impression that you don't have to worry about accidentally hitting it and knocking it down.






There are two sizes, "small" and "normal". The small size is perfect for women's and children's rice bowls. The normal size is not only a rice bowl for men, but also a good container for small bowls, ochazuke, and instant noodles. As an aside, the capacity was just right for one MUJI "mini ramen".




MUJI's "Hasami ware Kurawanka rice bowl" is stylish and has excellent stability. If you plan to replace or add rice bowls, why not consider them as candidates? The dimensions and price (tax included) for the "small size" are approximately 11 cm in diameter and 6.5 cm in height for 650 yen. "Normal size" is about 12.5 cm in diameter x 7.5 cm in height and costs 790 yen. In addition to the "Tokusa pattern" and "Fine stripe pattern" introduced this time, there are a total of four types of designs, "Thick stripe pattern" and "Susuki pattern". Check out the Soba Inoguchi (590 yen) and Bean Plate (490 yen), which are also available in the same Hasami ware series.
