This pine-shaped Japanese plate is perfect for celebrating special occasions as well as everyday use. The pine tree is an evergreen tree and is a symbol of "eternal life." In addition, some pine trees are thousands of years old and are said to be auspicious because they are associated with immortality and longevity.

Each piece is hand-painted by a dedicated artisan of Soukyu kiln from Kutani ware, making the texture of the plate warm and appealing. It may have air bubbles, small hollows, and such subtle imperfections, but we hope you enjoy the unique features of handmade products.

Perfect size as a sauce plate. It is also versatile to serve cheese, nuts, condiments, and other small food. Or you may put a small portion of food or relishes in, place it on a larger plate or into a bento box for more stylish and sophisticated food presentation.

The Kutani sauce plate comes in a variety of patterns and shapes, so look for your favorites and collect them for a more unified and beautiful table setting.
