Sea Bream-shaped Sauce Plate
This is a lovely Sea Bream-shaped Japanese plate. This fish, called “Tai” in Japanese, has long been valued as a good luck symbol for celebrations and other special occasions.
Also, the plum pattern is regarded as a symbol of “patience” and “beauty” because it blooms over the cold winter. There are other meanings such as “faithful” and “noble”.
Perfect size as a sauce plate. It is also versatile to serve cheese, nuts, condiments, and other small food. Or you may put a small portion of food or relishes in, place it on a larger plate or into a bento box for more stylish and sophisticated food presentation.
