Bear Fruit Small Side Plates / Set of 4

https://www.floyd.jp/images/detailed/3/bearfruit.gif In Japan, there is a proverb that reminds us that it takes time to see the results of our labor. Using the analogy of fruit trees, the proverb states that peach and chestnut trees take three years to bear fruit, the persimmon tree takes eight years, while the plum tree can take thirteen years. With this in mind we created these small side plates in the shape of a peach, a chestnut, a persimmon, and a plum, each beautifully glazed and uniquely textured.
