A good size for a side plate or individual portion of cookies or dessert. The plum flower is one of the first blossoms to open during the year and has always been closely associated with the coming of Spring. Unlike the cherry blossom, the plum has a strong sweet fragrance. Since the Heian period, they have been a symbol of refinement and purity. The original piece was created by the artisan in 1999, and was the first time he began applying white urushi on tableware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlum Blossom Dish was curated by Stevenson Aung\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigner\/Maker \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaker: \u003c\/b\u003eRyuji Mitani\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDesigner: \u003c\/b\u003eRyuji Mitani\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/b\u003e4.9” (w) x 4.9” (l) x 1.1\" (h) or 12.6cm (w) x 12.6cm (l) x 2.8cm (h)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight: \u003c\/b\u003e2.4 oz or 69 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/b\u003eMountain cherry wood, Food-safe lacquer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandcrafted in Matsumoto, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures Ryuji Mitani's signature on the bottom of the plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasch piece is individaully handcrafted and will feature variation of brushstrokes and slight variations of shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottom is black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not soak urushi lacquered pieces in water for prolonged periods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWash with a soft sponge and mild dish soap.
