Big blowsy pink flowers, slate-grey leaves, graphic black accents, a flash of orange at the centre, and a gold rim to tie it all together. It's bold, it's cheerful, and it absolutely does not take itself too seriously. Perfect, in other words, for cake.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Chikaramachi cake set features a large square serving platter and six matching square side plates, all hand-painted with the same exuberant floral wreath design on a crisp white ground. The plates have a gently scalloped edge and that characteristic square Art Deco shape that was very much having a moment in late 1920s Japan. The gold rim is present on all pieces, running neatly along the scalloped edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarked on the base with the distinctive red Chikaramachi crown-and-wreath stamp — a well-known Japanese export mark, made for the Western market.
