Thank you for viewing. This is an Imari ware, sometsuke (blue and white) dish from the Edo period, evoking the atmosphere of the time. 【About the Mark】 The mark "Made in the Wanli era of the Great Ming Dynasty" is inscribed on the inside of the foot. This is a "copy mark" (or "borrowed mark") that was popular in Imari ware at the time, and was placed with respect for the masterpieces of the Ming Dynasty in China. This is a pleasing point for antique fans, as it reflects the historical background of the time. 【Features and Design】 Design: A rare, flared shape like Mount Fuji. A quiet landscape painting is depicted on the inside, and a magnificent arabesque pattern is drawn on the back. Repair: This item has traces of "yaki-tsugi," a repair technique from the Edo period. It was repaired by connecting the broken parts with glass powder and re-firing them, which has a simple and powerful beauty different from modern kintsugi (gold joinery). 【Size】 Width: Approximately 19cm Depth: Approximately 13cm Height: Approximately 4cm 【Condition】 This is an antique that has been through many years. There are traces of yaki-tsugi, scratches, and stains due to aging. We hope to sell this to antique enthusiasts who can appreciate these as "scenery." 【Shipping】 As this is a valuable item, it will be carefully packed with cushioning material and shipped via Mercari delivery with tracking and compensation. #Koimari #Sometsuke #Sansuizu (landscape painting) #DeformedDish #MountFuji #ArabesquePattern #Yaki-tsugi #MadeInTheWanliEraOfTheGreatMingDynasty #Antique #EdoPeriod #JapaneseTableware #Porcelain
