Those are very nice! I have never seen any with the dish together before.<br /> The one my mother has is like the normal 100yen ones (like i have!), but instead of being perfectly round, the outline is kaki-shaped, with a sort of stem + leaf bit on one side. </p> <p>Have you seen any nice ceramics shops selling these kind of goods? I don't need it to be a fancy shape, but I want to get her something nicer than 100yen!</p> <p>I looked around at the tezukuri-ichiba at Chionji today, but I didn't see anything... </p> http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/topic/ceramic-gingergarlic-graters#post-183 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 04:55:57 +0000 miwa 183@http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/ <p>This one is very pretty.</p> <p><a href="http://item.rakuten.co.jp/sara-cera/s0005660/" rel="nofollow">http://item.rakuten.co.jp/sara-cera/s0005660/</a></p> <p>from rakuten online store...... </p> http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/topic/ceramic-gingergarlic-graters#post-182 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 04:51:31 +0000 miwa 182@http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/ <p>Hello!

It's the kind that is just a flat disk of pottery, pricked many times before firing to leave raised sharp bumps across the surface to do the grating. It's very cute, and after using hers, i got myself a plain, white, 100yen shop one to use at home.<br /> Well, hers is finally wearing out, and she asked me to find her a new one, but i have no idea where she got hers (it may not have been in Kyoto...)<br /> I have looked around at Nishiki-koji, and in many ceramic shops here and there (including the streets around Kiyomizu), but i haven't found anything similar at all...<br /> Does anyone know where i could find one of these? Especially an attractive handmade one? </p>
