A simply stunning plate with finely detailed traditional patterns in various shades of red decorated with gold. 

"Akae" which means "red drawing," is one of the classic techniques of Kutani Ware. Detailed patterns with differing shades of a red pigment are added to the Kutani ware that fully cover the surface of the item.

To add to the beauty of the elegant "akae" is the gold. Styles in which the background is painted in red and then filled in with gold is called "Kinrande," which is one of the most popular styles of Akae. This enhances the intricate patterns and texture of the plate. The windmill pattern gives movement to the total design and gives the plate a contemporary and stylish look.

The slightly curved design makes it easy to plate any kind of dish, even those with a slight sauce. The plate has a diameter of about 11 inches and is large enough to work well as a main plate for a meal of 3 to 4 people.
