In light blue, all the colour is saved for the tail, filled solid and curling along the base of the plate. In red, the colour comes instead as patches, a small triangle at the ear, a curve along the back, a single round spot mid body, and a larger patch spreading into the tail, closer to a real calico's uneven coat than to a designed, repeating pattern. Both are the same idea as the larger main plate, simply built down to size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarekutani is the newest chapter for Kitano Toujudou, a Kutani wholesaler trading out of Nomi City, Ishikawa, since 1972, working within Kutani yaki, a porcelain tradition over 360 years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 14cm, it is the right size for a few olives, a small pile of nuts, or a spoonful of chutney beside a cheeseboard.
