The red and white plum blossoms are considered auspicious due to the "red and white" color scheme, with "red" symbolizing warding off evil and misfortune, "white" symbolizing nobility and purity, and "plum blossoms" representing the indomitable spirit that endures the cold and heralds spring, making them suitable for celebrations. This is a luxurious and opulent dish with rich gold accents. It is an item that will elegantly enhance your dining table for New Year's and other special occasions. Condition: It was stored at my parents' house without a box, but it was wrapped in tissue paper, so there are no scratches from stacking, and it is in very beautiful condition. Size (approx.): 25cm long x 14cm wide x 2.5cm high Matching chopstick rests are also available, so please take a look if you'd like. I will carefully pack and ship it.
