These plates were displayed on a shelf at my parents' house. They are a set of 5. They have been used a few times when guests visited, and 3 of the plates have small chips on the corners (photos 8-11). They are not very noticeable and I don't think they affect use, but please be aware that this is subjective. If you are concerned, please refrain from purchasing. Also, please understand that there may be other minor imperfections that I have overlooked. The way the light reflects off them creates a shimmering, iridescent effect, like soap bubbles. 14.5 x 14.5 cm Depending on how they are packed, the shipping method may be changed from Yu-Yu Mercari Bin to Raku-Raku Mercari Bin. Please understand that these are used items before purchasing.
