The lily of the valley is also known as "Kimi Kage Sou" (shadow grass), evoking the image of a beautiful and modest woman who thinks of a loved one and quietly watches over them from the shadows.
With its rustic and understated beauty, the lily of the valley has long been famous in France as a "flower that brings happiness and brings happiness again." May 1st is "fête du muguet," a day to give lilies of the valley to loved ones. Also, because it resembles a veiled bride, it is a flower often given at weddings.
The design evokes the modest beauty of the lily of the valley. The deep greenish-blue and white ceramic further enhance its elegance. Between the patterns, a small floral relief is applied, adding a soft, lace-like impression, making this series full of charm.
Crazing and cutlery marks are visible. There are multiple chips.
