Yazaemon Plum-Shaped Sauce Plate Set

This is a set of elegant plum-shaped sauce plates. The dish is a lovely size and looks like a little plum blooming in your hand when you hold it. The shape of this porcelain, plum, is also said to bring good luck. 

The size of the dish is just right for placing a small amount of condiments needed when eating soba noodles or pickles as an accompaniment to rice. It can also be used as a plate on which to put soy sauce or other sauces.
