This plum flower-shaped Japanese sauce plate fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. It is a wonderful example of use of Kutani ware colors named gosai (red, yellow, green, purple, and dark blue). Each piece is hand-painted, making the texture of the plate warm and appealing. 

Perfectly sized as a sauce plate, it is also versatile enough to serve cheese, nuts, condiments, and other small bites. You can also use it to hold a small portion of food or relishes, placing it on a larger plate or inside a bento box for a more stylish and refined presentation.

This plate makes a thoughtful gift for yourself or a loved one, whether as a wish for good health or a token of good luck.
