Kajikane Seiji

A sea bream trending upward
This sea-bream-shaped vessel was crafted by artisans during the Meiji Restoration as a whimsical creation. While fish-shaped dishes typically feature the head facing left, this one is distinctive for facing right. Since facing right symbolizes "upward growth," it is also treasured as a lucky charm.

Kajikane-san's sea bream-shaped small plates are hand-painted with auspicious motifs such as the seigaiha (wave) pattern, treasure bags, and gourds. Each piece is decorated using traditional painting techniques, and their slight individual variations are part of their charm.
