Set of Four Petite Japanese Blue & White Inban Dishes
About the Item
These petite Japanese dishes are patterned with a bright, cobalt blue design of flowers and leaves, arranged to form a large, five-petal plum or cherry blossom. A type of porcelain ware known as inban, the dishes were decorated using a paper stencil - a Meiji-era technique to meet demands for the ever-popular blue-and-white style. Applied by hand, this stencil method still resulted in minor differences from plate to plate, adding to the set's vintage charm. The little dishes are finished with a glossy clear glaze and a pop of gold along the rim.

Chinese Blue and White Fu Lion Headrest, c. 1900
Located in Chicago, IL
This large ceramic block is actually a form of Chinese headrest or neck pillow. Popular during the Qing dynasty, rigid headrests such as this were used by upper-class women to protect their elaborate hairstyles by elevating the head during slumber. This example dates to the early 20th century and is glazed in the blue-and-white style with rich, cobalt-blue color.
The headrest is decorated on all sides with mythical fu lion dogs playing with ribbon-tied brocade balls, a motif that evokes the idiom "may you and your descendant achieve high rank." A powerful and benevolent guardian, the fu lion (shizi) is the perfect force to protect against nightmares and bad energy. A geometric meander trims the corners and small dragon-like bats frame coin...
