The Design

About Lucky Plate Set jedilnih krožnikov

Lucky Plate je set keramičnih jedilnih krožnikov v obliki štiriperesne deteljice. Oblika štiriperesne deteljice v kitajski tradiciji simbolizira upanje, darežljivost, ljubezen in srečo. Na robu vsakega krožnika so štirje utori. Dva utora med obrokom držita jedilni pribor, druga dva pa se uporabljata za odlaganje pribora po koncu obroka. Oblikovan rob prav tako preprečuje kapljanje omake pri odstranjevanju hrane. Krožniki so izdelani v Jingdezhenu iz visokotemperaturnega porcelana, ki je nestrupen in primeren za uporabo v mikrovalovni pečici.
