The trays are crafted from wood and finished with a deep chestnut-red urushi lacquer, giving them a warm and luxurious appearance.

Dimensions: height 2 cm, diameter 27 cm.

The surface is hand-decorated with a gold-colored painting depicting a serene mountain landscape, complete with a pine tree and traditional ships. The slightly raised rim also features a gold finish, while the underside is coated in a contrasting black lacquer.

On the bottom, the trays bear a hallmark consisting of two overlapping rings.
