These small dishes are 180mm square and were fired stacked together. The one on the right is the top one without any wadding marks the other four all have the three wadding marks like the one on the left. They are very useful for serving small individual portions of food. Yes! There are only five in the traditional Japanese way - not the half dozen that Western people would expect.
If one cooks, one can never have enough small plates and neither the medium or large platters. Love the color and shape. I am amazed that these did not warp when fired stacked one upon on the other.
