This is an item from Zohiko, a lacquerware specialty store that Kyoto is proud of. It was taken out of the box and stored in the china cabinet at my parents' house for guests. It doesn't seem to have been used, but one plate has a small stain on the gold pattern. I don't think it's noticeable unless you look closely, but please be aware of this. Size: Approximately 21cm (vertical) Approximately 21cm (horizontal) Perfect for serving sweets and tea. Square shapes may not be very common. Please understand that this item has been stored at home. It will be shipped via Yu-Packet Plus with very simple packaging. I am also selling other Zohiko confectionery plates.
