This is a modern Imari-style Chinese bowl from the Ryuhogama kiln of Arita-yaki, dating from the Showa era. The beautiful, auspicious Imari painting with its lovely color scheme will make your dishes look even more vibrant. It's a wonderful piece for serving ramen, champon, or other Chinese dishes. It's an old item, but in very good condition. There may be slight misalignments or color variations in the painting, but these are not flaws. This is a beautiful bowl with the charming atmosphere of the Showa era. Thank you for your understanding.
