I don't know the kiln. The Western-style design makes it look elegant when serving Western food or light meals. It has been used daily and stored at home for many years. It's old, so there are crazing cracks throughout (photos 9-14). Please consider this before purchasing. Please check the size and condition in the photos. *This listing is for the plate only; the easel is not included. #LargePlatesAndBowls_Nonoko #Tableware_Nonoko
