Gorgeous Plate with a Kirin surrounded by Sacred Fire. The Japanese Kirin represents Justice, Peace, Wisdom and Purity. The surrounding 4 panels are a Nabeshima style of Imari depicting pictures of Japanese Fabrics. I love the Imari color palette with both underpainting and then raised enamel painting on the surface.


Condition:
Alterations: Original Condition Unaltered
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: There is minor paint loss to the stems of the Irises on the 4 panels only. It is in excellent condition without any chips. There is a very minor 1/2 inch hairline crack on one portion of the underneath porcelain near the outer scallop rim. Please refer to photos.
