Small plates
A small plate is not only for serving food. Condiments, pickles, a sweet, a little soy sauce — it catches whatever sits at the edge of a meal, and in doing so gives the table its outline.
Most run three to four sun, small enough to rest in the palm. Some are built from slabs of clay cut and joined, so the corners stay square; some have rims lifted into petals; some carry a small drawing in blue; some are white porcelain carved so the glaze pools in the cuts and draws the pattern itself. Being small, each one differs more visibly than a larger piece, and a stack of them is never quite uniform.
Three sun is about 9cm, four sun about 12cm. Three suits one person's condiments; four works as a side plate. Choosing a small plate starts from what you will put on it, and sun to centimetres gives the conversions.
