Same pattern is on both sides and bowls are rimmed in gold.  The backstamp reads "Sone China Nagoya".  These plates would look especially nice on a Spring or Summer table setting, perhaps with other earthy items like bamboo flatware and weaved sea grass/wicker place mats.  There are many uses for these bowls outside the dinning table.   Materials:  Stonew
