<p><b>A pair of Japanese lacquer over wood luncheon or occasional plates measuring 7 ins. in diameter, dating to the late Meiji - early Taisho Periods (1868-1912).</b> Each plate has a gold tendril or scroling vine design accenting a central design of a seaside mountain scene done in raised gold and red lacquer. There are some small frets to the edge noticeable only by touch and some minor wear of the gold. Otherwise the plates are in fine and original condition. They have no marks on the base, meaning either that they pre-dated the tariff acts of 1891 (I doubt this) or that they were part of a set that was marked on the box. Both the design and workmanship are typical of early 20th century -- pre WW II -- work for the tourist trade. In any case, they will make a fine additon to your collection for decoration and/or use as occasional serving pieces. |
