About the Item

This exquisite 19th-century Imari porcelain dish features a shallow octagonal form, richly decorated with hand-painted peonies, insects, and floral panels. A beautiful example of the Imari style, it showcases the refined craftsmanship and vibrant palette characteristic of porcelain from the Hizen region. Imari porcelain emerged during the early Edo period (1603–1867), following the discovery of kaolin clay in Hizen (modern-day Saga Prefecture). The region became a hub of Japanese porcelain production, with its wares highly prized both domestically and abroad. Key Features: Color Palette: Traditional Imari colors—underglaze cobalt blue with overglaze red, gold, and black detailing Motifs: Peonies, insects, and stylized floral panels—common decorative elements in Imari design Shape: Octagonal, a classic form in Imari porcelain Technique: Entirely hand-painted, with a mix of geometric and organic motifs A finely executed and collectible piece, embodying the elegance and cultural depth of Meiji-era Japanese porcelain.
