About the Item

Japanese Meiji Period Ukyoi-style Cloisonné Plate Depicting a Bijin with Irises, Ca. 1890 PERIOD Meiji Period: 1868-1912 DIMENSIONS Diameter: 9.75 inches Depth: 0.5 inches ABOUT A refined example of Meiji-period cloisonné craftsmanship, this elegant plate features a striking bijin (beautiful woman) rendered in the ukiyo-e style, gracefully holding a bouquet of irises. Dating to circa 1890, the composition reflects the era’s fascination with feminine beauty, seasonal motifs, and sophisticated enamel artistry. The woman is depicted in elegant traditional attire done in richly hued enamel work. The irises—symbols of purity, courage, and seasonal renewal—add poetic charm to the overall composition. This decorative plate exemplifies the high technical and aesthetic standards of late 19th-century Japanese cloisonné. Its smooth enamel surface and subtle color palette reflect the influence of woodblock prints and the era’s pursuit of both naturalism and idealized beauty. It is a superb collector’s piece celebrating the confluence of fine cloisonné technique and classical Japanese aesthetic tradition.

Characteristics: • Base: Made from fine white porcelain. • Decoration: Richly colored and ornate, featuring: o Underglaze blue painting (Arita blue-and-white style). o Overglaze enamels, especially in red, gold, green, and blue (the classic “Kinrande” Imari style). • Designs: Often feature floral motifs, birds, mythical creatures, and geometric patterns in bold symmetrical compositions.
