Purchased this beauty at a local antique store. Unfortunately, I don't know the origin or artist, but am listing as Japanese Kutani from the Meiji Period based on similar items found online with the same types of colors and patterns. If I am incorrect in its origins, it is not intentional, I'm simply doing the best I can with the research I have. Counting on the buyer to be experienced in this type of antique if interested. Oval plate measures approx 10" x 6.5". Finished with gold paint/gilding/plating and has a signature painted in red mark on bottom. Please see pics for more info and condition details. Experienced shipper, will be packaged with care. Shipping Priority Mail in order to provide insurance and best handling. Questions, please ask before purchase.
