Pair of Antique Japanese Imari Porcelain Plates
Description
A fine pair of antique Japanese Imari porcelain plates beautifully hand-painted in the traditional iron-red, cobalt blue, and gilt palette on a white ground. Each plate features a central floral medallion surrounded by alternating panels of stylised chrysanthemums, peonies, and foliage — a classic example of late 19th-century Imari design.
The plates exhibit excellent quality enamelling and balanced composition, with gilt detailing adding refinement and depth. These decorative pieces display wonderfully on stands or in a cabinet, bringing a touch of Edo and Meiji-period artistry to any interior.
