a set of five dishes in Seto type ware with Daikon (radish) design; there are five dishes as is the custom in Japan representing the five senses

diameter: 21.5 cm

note: one may wonder why Rosanjin elected to embelish dishes with a humble Daikon (radish) it maybe with his interest in food that the words of farmer/philosopher Masanobu Fukuoka (1913-2008) would have not been lost on Rosanjin “if you understand the heart of one daikon, you understand all. You see that religion and philosophy and science are all one”; a daikon is seen as part of the earth, a seed of the earth
