Large Japanese Imari Fluted Charger, Edo/Meiji Period, Mid 19th Century, Japan
Located in Austin, TX
A large and impressive Japanese Imari porcelain fluted charger with scalloped rim, signed Kaji(chu?), Edo to Meiji Period, mid 19th century, Japan.
The magnificent Japanese Imari charger measures 25" in diameter, and is decorated in the typical imari palette of underglaze blue with overglaze red, orange, blue, and green enamels with gilt highlights. The large charger also features fluted sides and a scalloped gilt rim.
The design of the charger is centered on a central floral medallion with three large chrysanthemum blossoms and vegetal scrolls. Radiating out from the central medallion are various brocade patterned sections that roughly follow the shape of the fluting. Some larger sections feature images of cranes and minogame (turtles with long tails), both symbols of longevity, while other feature dragons and phoenix, symbols of authority and power. Four large reserves depict charming scenes of a scholar and his students within a bamboo grove having discourse and examining scrolls.
The back of the charger decorated in underglaze blue with bold floral and vegetal scrolls. With a three character inscription in underglaze blue reading Kaji(chu?) Sei.
The charger is fitted with an antique metal hanger...
