The 'Kasanejima' (overlapping stripes) plate series, with its diagonal, slightly irregularly drawn stripes, creates a relaxed, fresh rhythm on the plates and puts you in a good mood.
The series includes a mini plate for condiment sauces, a small plate for breakfast or appetizers, a medium plate for starters or side dishes, a large plate for main courses, and a rectangular plate for grilled fish, sushi, or sashimi.

Since its launch, the series has not lost any of its popularity. On the contrary, the Good Design Award of 2016 speaks to the timeless, enduring style of Masahiro Mori.

Hakusan Porcelain, based in the ceramics town of Hasami on the island of Kyushu, was founded in 1779 and has operated in its current form since 1951. In 1956, product designer Masahiro Mori was hired to revitalize the product range. His keen sense of design, form, functionality, and reasonable pricing left a lasting mark on the company.
