Imari Charger Plate
This exquisite antique charger plate is a stunning example of Japanese Imari porcelain from the Meiji period (1868-1912). The plate features a beautifully hand-painted scene of cranes amidst foliage, executed in cobalt blue and rich red, and accented with gold detailing. The intricate design is achieved through a combination of hand-painting and transferware techniques, showcasing the skill of the Tiahodo artisans. The scalloped rim and vibrant colours exemplify the Imari style, making it a captivating centrepiece for any collection.
