Nanban Three-Legged Irregular Plate
The Nanban Mittsu-ashi Henkei-zara (南蛮三ッ足変形皿) is a Japanese ceramic plate featuring an irregular, organic shape and three small legs that elevate it slightly above the table surface.
The term “Nanban” refers to a rustic, earthy pottery style influenced by early foreign trade during Japan’s Momoyama period, often showcasing natural textures and dark, iron-rich glazes. The three-legged (tripod) design adds a sense of balance and traditional charm while enhancing stability.
This type of plate is often used for serving appetizers, sashimi, or seasonal dishes in kaiseki-style or modern Japanese dining, combining artistic form with practical beauty.
