This is a very gorgeous set! This is at least 40 years old.It is called a "三段重" or "sandan-kasane" which means "3 layers piled". These kind of sets are very popular in Japan as Japanese like to eat many different dishes at one meal.
There is a crane sitting on a branch of a pine tree. In Japan, cranes symbolize a long life. It is mostly in blue and white but there is a touch of soft pink on the crane's head and on the lid the sun is also the same soft pink. Please check all the pictures as they show the images that are also on the back and the 2 sides.It is in excellent condition. It measures 17 cm tall cm x 14 cm wide. Each layer is 14 cm wide x 5.2cm deep.Do not use in the microwave. Wash by hand. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS VERY HEAVY AND BREAKABLE-this weighs about 3 kgs or over 6.5 pounds (this includes the box and shipping supplies needed to safely package this bento box). This must be sent via EMS as it weighs over 2kgs. There will be tracking and insurance.IF YOU LIVE IN SOUTH AMERICA OR AFRICA PLEASE EMAIL ME FOR A SHIPPING QUOTE (it will be over $100). IF YOU LIVE IN SOUTH AMERICA OR AFRICA AND ORDER THIS AND PAY FOR IT WITHOUT FIRST ARRANGING IT WITH ME I WILL HAVE TO CANCEL THE ORDER AND REFUND YOUR MONEY.
