【Excellent Condition】Okura Toen Blue Rose (8011) Scalloped Edge 26cm Meat Plate This is a "Blue Rose" meat plate (26cm in diameter) from Okura Toen, a top-class porcelain manufacturer that Japan is proud to present to the world. This item is from the "8011" line, which has been loved since its birth in 1952. The soft "flower-shaped (rim shape)" relief on the edge creates an elegant shadow depending on the angle of the light. This shape, where the edge undulates, is formally called a "scalloped edge." "Scalloped" refers to the shape of a seashell's edge, or a wavy edge, and is a word used in porcelain and Western tableware to refer to the edge of a plate with frills or wave-shaped decorations. The roses, drawn with shades of deep navy blue on Okura Toen's symbolic "Okura White" porcelain, are beautifully reflected. Especially the gold decoration on the edge uses gold that is almost pure gold (24K) with few impurities, and it has a moist, heavy, and elegant shine that is different from general gold plating. This high-purity gold decoration is the reason why it adds a special brilliance to the dining table. This is a high-end line among Okura Toen's products, and I checked, and the direct sales store price was 22,000 yen (tax included). 【Condition】 There is slight peeling of the gold decoration on the edge (photos 10-12) and minor scratches that can be seen when held up to the light, but it is at a level that is comparable even when used alongside unused items. 【Size】 Diameter: Approximately 26cm (for main dishes) 【Shipping and Packaging】 As this is a valuable item, it will be carefully and securely packed with cushioning material and delivered via Mercari delivery (anonymous delivery). There are two other items of the same product that are almost unused. If you wish, I can also list them.
