These eye-catching and beautiful items feature a variety of gold-colored paintings. Each of the five plates has a gold-colored chrysanthemum arabesque pattern in the center. Around them are gorgeous gold-colored paintings with various floral patterns. Each plate features designs such as rock peonies, clouds and autumn leaves (cherry blossoms and autumn leaves), plum and bamboo, phoenix, floral arabesque, and tortoiseshell patterns. The use of black as an accent color in the colored paintings adds a touch of calm sophistication to the gorgeousness. It's a wonderful design that makes the gold coloring stand out^_^. *Please note that the colors may appear slightly different depending on the natural light or type of lighting. Size: Approximately 12.7 cm in diameter, approximately 2.4 cm in height. Suitable for side dishes, appetizers, small dishes, condiment dishes, soy sauce dishes, etc. The vivid color contrast makes these small plates stand out on the dining table^_^. These were found in the storage of my parents' home. They were stored in a tea box. Unused and in excellent condition! There are no cracks, chips, or watermarks. These are items from the good old Showa era. They are no longer made and are difficult to obtain. Please understand that these items have been stored at home, and consider purchasing them. Please forgive any original glaze or gold paint unevenness, slight imperfections, or minor scratches due to storage. I have discarded the original bulky box, so I will pack them securely with bubble wrap before shipping.
