Meer informatie

Shown is a large round Japanese porcelain dish, made in the city of Arita and transported via the Imari port. It is very nicely decorated with a so-called Imari decor in which it is hand-painted in dark blue under the glaze, and with iron red and gold above the glaze. In the center of the plateau, on a snow-white cover, we see a round decor of rocks on which a singing bird sits, behind it a bamboo bush, a lotus flower with green leaves and cloud formations in the background. This is lined with a dark blue gilded scalloped edge. On the elevation and the sloping flat edge, the saucer is divided into three large ruji-shaped motifs richly painted with an orange-iron-red and gilded lotus plant and feathered branches, and in between three iron-red and gold panels with stylized lotus plant. The edge is completely filled all around in dark blue with gilding. On the back there are four long prune branches painted on the border. Outside the base ring we see three parallel concentric circles in blue. The dish is not marked, indicating an early Imari product. We do see five proons in the center in the shape of an “X”, places on which the plate was supported during the baking process. This is typical of Japanese Imari made before 1700. Chinese Imari does not have these proons. Thus, although busy, a very beautifully decorated balanced product is created that is a real eye-catcher. Top work.

Condition: the gold is slightly worn in places, but otherwise in perfect status.
