What Is the Mount Fuji & Pine Makie Plate Made Of?

The Mount Fuji & Pine Makie Flat Plate has a Jet Black glass body with a hand-colored gold-toned Mount Fuji and pine motif. The lacquer decoration is on the back of the glass and sealed with a protective resin coating. The food-contact surface is glass.

Read the design through the material

The dark glass provides a background for the mountain and pine design. The hand-colored motif is visible through the plate, while the decorated surface is on the reverse side. The listing describes the appearance and construction; it does not specify the exact composition of the gold-colored material. Do not assume that a gold appearance proves a particular metal content.

What sizes are offered?

• Small: 210 mm diameter, 18 mm high, approximately 400 g.
• Medium: 280 mm diameter, 23 mm high, approximately 830 g.
• Large: 330 mm diameter, 15 mm high, approximately 1,270 g.

These are three versions of the same named plate. Check your cupboard and table space against the diameter, especially for the 330 mm size. A wide, shallow glass plate needs a stable place when it is moved with food.

How do you care for the back?

The product is described as dishwasher-safe while the protective back coating remains sound. Friction or impacts can damage the resin layer. If it is scratched, peeling, discolored, or deformed, handwash instead. Protect the decorated back from knocks when stacking or storing the plate.

Before you buy

Choose the size on the live product page and compare its gallery images. The cover is a styled illustration based on actual product photographs. Since the motif is hand-colored, the exact plate you receive may show small visual differences from a photograph.
