This is a hand-painted plate featuring ancient roses from Fukagawa Seiji, a kiln that is a purveyor to the Imperial Household Agency and known for Arita-yaki porcelain. Size: Diameter: Approximately 15.5cm Height: Approximately 2.5cm (Please note that these measurements are approximate due to amateur inspection.) No box included. Currently, Fukagawa Seiji only produces coffee cups in the ancient rose series, making this a valuable item. (Ancient rose coffee cups are sold for 110,000 yen each on the kiln's official online shop.) About the Ancient Rose Technique: Sometsuke is a traditional technique where cobalt blue pigment (gosu) is applied with a brush and absorbed into the unglazed porcelain. Although the design appears simple, it requires meticulous craftsmanship and the skill of an artisan. This piece expresses the elegant and refined appearance of roses through a sophisticated sometsuke technique of shading and blurring. Furthermore, it is finished with a combination of complex and advanced sometsuke techniques such as "tsukedami" (thickening), "fukikake" (spraying), and "sumi-hajiki" (ink-repelling). Please be aware of potential imperfections such as manufacturing spots, pinholes, unevenness in the dye, and minor scratches. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly sensitive to the condition. Photos may appear different depending on the lighting, angle, and the performance of your monitor and environment.
