Doggies stare at the large Christmas lights while Santa tip toes his way around town.
This sturdily-made stoneware by Noritake Epoch brings nostalgic "silent night" charm to your Christmas table with a peaceful, warm illustration which is dominated by child-like bright red, green and earthy brown. The exterior silhouetted city backdrop on a snowy, lit streetlamp night focuses on an adorable pair of wagging dogs, enthralled by the huge decorated tree. Of course, Santa is just everywhere!
This adorable collection for eight includes a unique 17"L serving tray which is surprisingly made of plastic. It is easy and light to hold but sturdy.
The candles holders accept wider candles measuring 1 1/8 inch thickness.
Also included is a round 12" porcelain platter from Noritake's 1996-1999 "Twas' The Night Before Christmas" issue, which tweaked the Epoch design, this time using Scottish Terriers.
Please note: The dessert plates measure at 7 1/4", as designed, and may be on the smaller than expected size, yet they will easily hold a slice of cake plus an extra smaller portion. (seconds, anyone?)
