Collector’s Notes

Dorothy Okumoto is associated with Hawaiian porcelain work featuring delicate hand-formed floral ornament, especially plumeria, and her pieces are still actively collected today. A current Hawaii gallery describing family continuation of her work specifically notes that she was known for classic porcelain ceramics with hand-formed plumeria decoration, and market listings show steady collector interest in signed Okumoto porcelain and related floral forms. 

This set is especially appealing because it keeps the flowers in a useful, display-friendly cream and sugar form rather than a more common vase or small decorative piece. The included card and note also add nice context for buyers interested in Hawaii-linked studio porcelain.
