Small glass plates are useful for many things. Some people use them to serve food and desserts, to serve sweets for entertaining, or to hold accessories and other small ojects.

We'd like to introduce a collection of glass plates individually and caringly hand-made by a Japanese glass artisan who happens to love cats!

As you can see, the shape of the plates is a silhouette of a cat's face...!

These charming glass plates are called "Kokoneko Kozara," which means something like "there's a cat here."

Simple, but so cute! Small plates with cat faces

Round and topped with two triangular ears, you're sure to recognize their familiar shape. These plates have the unmistakable silhouette of a cat.

Since they're individually handmade by a craftsman, you'll find individual differences in color, pattern, shape, size, and weight. In other words, just like the felines on which they are based, no two Kokoneko plates are exactly alike.

There's a special feeling that comes from owning your very own plates handmade by a skilled craftsman.

Glass plates can sometimes be thin and easy to break, but there's no need to worry with Kokoneko. These plates are not only cute, but they're also very well made, suitably thick, and sturdy.
