About the Item

These petite Japanese dishes are patterned with a bright, cobalt blue design of flowers and leaves, arranged to form a large, five-petal plum or cherry blossom. A type of porcelain ware known as inban, the dishes were decorated using a paper stencil - a Meiji-era technique to meet demands for the ever-popular blue-and-white style. Applied by hand, this stencil method still resulted in minor differences from plate to plate, adding to the set's vintage charm. The little dishes are finished with a glossy clear glaze and a pop of gold along the rim.
