    "description": "Yohei III’s main output for his sophisticated clientele was in the form of tea sets and dining sets. He often produced in pairs, sets of five, or sets of ten.<br><br>This set of five dishes with a green glaze and designs of ivy vines in very low relief has unfortunately lost its box. These dishes are slightly larger than the other dishes, like <a href=\"http://www.clevelandart.org/art/2022.187\">CMA 2022.187</a>, and so may have been not saucers but rather small plates for meals.",
