Lily of the valley is also known as "Kimi Kage Sou" (shadow grass), and it evokes the image of a beautiful and modest woman who cherishes her loved ones and quietly watches over them from the shadows.
With its rustic and understated beauty, lily of the valley has long been known in France as "the flower that brings happiness and the flower that brings happiness again." May 1st is "fête du muguet," a day to give lily of the valley to loved ones. Also, because it resembles a veiled bride, it is often given at weddings.
The design evokes the modest beauty of lily of the valley. The deep greenish-blue and white ceramic further enhance its elegance. Between the patterns, small floral reliefs are applied, adding a soft, lace-like impression, making it a very charming series.
Crazing and cutlery marks can be seen. There are no chips, but there are cracks.
