These plates come in four different designs of a bunny blowing bubbles, a friendly elephant, a smiling lion and a happy cat. All the drawings on the plates are hand drawn with care, giving a simple yet warm expression to all the animal designs.
The reddish brown color goes well with various types of menus, especially ones with ingredients in bright colors like yellow and green. The plate is approximately 13cm (5 in) in diameter and can be used to plate different types of dishes in small portions for children. These plates have a slightly curved rim that make them easy for children to eat out of and the outer sides are carved with thin grooves for a better hold.

"Suri-urushi" is where multiple layers of raw lacquer are rubbed into a wooden surface to create a transparent shiny coat.
