Miya Hoso Tokusa Rice Bowl, 4.25 in.

The bowl that is in the dish rack most nights, because it is the one everybody reaches for first.

Hoso Tokusa is one of Miya's steadiest sellers, and the reason is unromantic: the design, the shapes and the sheer everyday usability. This is the 4.25 inch rice bowl, two and a half inches deep and genuinely light, which matters more than it sounds when you are holding a full bowl up near your chin rather than admiring it on a shelf. Blue and white, made in Japan, and cleared for both the microwave and the dishwasher, so it stays in rotation instead of being saved for good.
