Autumn sweets


Click here to bid

I discovered these sweets at a shop in Kurashiki, Japan. Kurashiki is famous for Bizen-ware, a type of earthy, unglazed pottery in many shades of deep brown. It was three years ago that I was there, but I saved these sweets and now they look like little jewels. Persimmons, chesnuts, and maple leaves....autumn in Japan.
