The plate measures 9.75 inches wide across the handles, 9-3/8 inches across the middle, and about 1.25 inches high at the tops of the handles. It is in very good condition, with no chips, cracks, crazing, utensil marks, or scuffs. There is very faint wear to the gold trim on one handle (see closeup photos).

The bottom has a clear red mark for "Noritake | M | Hand Painted | Made in Japan."
