Arita Ware Porcelain Glasses Stand

At a glance

• Sloped porcelain form keeps folded glasses upright and easy to spot
• Decorative Arita pattern still looks considered when the stand is empty
• Compact 14cm form fits easily beside a bed, desk or reading chair

For something used every day, glasses are surprisingly easy to misplace.

This Arita Ware stand gives a folded pair a fixed place, holding them upright on a sloped porcelain form rather than leaving them flat among books, cables or bedside objects. The glasses remain visible and easy to pick up when you need them again.

The porcelain surface is covered with a dense floral pattern, available in Blue or Red, turning a practical stand into something worth leaving in view. When the glasses are being worn, the shape and decoration still give it the presence of a small ceramic ornament rather than an empty holder.

At approximately 14cm long, it takes up little surface space and works naturally on a bedside table, desk or reading corner.

It also makes an unusually useful gift for someone who wears reading or prescription glasses every day. Decorative, but with a clear job to do.

Made as Arita Ware porcelain in Japan.
