Thank you for viewing. The color is "tame-nuri" (a type of lacquerware), and the red color will gradually appear with use. We value the spirit of hospitality... The 14cm size is just right and can be used for multiple purposes. You can use it as a sweet dish for tea time or as a serving plate for New Year's "osechi" (traditional New Year's food) without choosing the occasion. About Tame-nuri: Tame-nuri is a method of lacquering where a semi-transparent black topcoat is applied over a red undercoat, allowing the red color to be seen through the translucent lacquer. As you use it, the lacquer becomes more transparent, and the red color becomes more visible. 【Size】 Diameter: Approximately 14cm Height: Approximately 1cm Weight: Approximately 80g *Variations exist between individual items ★Urushi-nuri (lacquerware) ★Base material: Natural wood ★Original box included, no other accessories ★No accessories to identify the production area/workshop 【Condition】 There are scratches on the front and back due to long-term storage. *Please refer to the attached photos.
