Arita-yaki Tokushichi Kiln gourd plate. The gourd's Japanese pattern has a different design for each one, with a cute Japanese design that evokes the good old days. Gourds have been loved as a lucky charm since ancient times, and their "expanding" shape is considered auspicious. In particular, when six gourds are gathered, they are called "Rokubyo (mubyo)" = "no illness," which has the auspicious meaning of "good health." This plate is perfect for serving small portions of food or desserts. Each piece is hand-painted, so no two have exactly the same pattern. 【Size】 Approx. 21cm x approx. 9cm Height: approx. 2cm 【Material】 Porcelain 【Production】 Arita-yaki Tokushichi Kiln Brand new, unused.
