Decorative Round Ceramic Traditional Portuguese Style Platter

About the Item

Similar to Moriageware or Satsumaware, this platter features intricate designs which are raised or incised into the piece giving it a soft textured feel. The design is reminiscent of Portuguese design both in the colors as well as the decorations. The center of the piece features a round medallion filled with a bouquet of orange flowers encircled with orange satsuma fruit and green garlands of leaves. Encircling the medallion, are blue and orange flourished decorations on a cream background. The rim features a red, yellow and orange braided design upon a dark navy blue background and orange trim. The edges are scalloped. The base is nonagonal in shape and reads at the center in red: “For decorative purpose only. Not for food use. May poison food.” Many collectors read this and think that the piece is from Asia. However, this is not always the case. In the late 20th century, the FDA in the United’s states mandated that all ceramics imported not for food consumption be stamped with this marking. No matter the country of origin. Specifications: 12.5" diameter 1.5" tall 3 lbs.

Ceramic Nippon Morimura Brothers Decorative Dish Vide Poche or Catchall, 1800s
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
A rare find, this decorative oval shaped Nippon catchall by Morimura Brothers is a fabulous example of early Japanese ceramics. A lovely ceramic dish for holding change or other items, it will be a fabulous chintz addition to any nightstand or foyer table. Highly decorated in bouquets of pink and yellow flowers, the center of the dish is the showstopper. A chinoiserie bird in flight with a pink breast and yellow, blue and green feathers takes center stage. Surrounding him are more bouquets of flowers and a single pink and blue bird. The rim of the dish is encircled with a blue ribbon adorned with intricately painted flowers such as white daisys and pink and yellow peonies. Two handles are at each end for carrying. The handles and the rim are both painted in gold. The back stamp at bottom reads in green, “M-in-Wreath, hand-painted ("M" stands for importer, Morimura Bros.); Nippon.” Mark used since 1911. The practice of painting of the word “Nippon” on ceramic bases began in 1891 in response to the U.S. McKinley Tariff Act, which forbade the import of items that weren’t “plainly marked...
