Thank you for viewing. I am selling this item to clear out household goods. The plate is like new, but the wooden box is as shown. One nail on the hinge of the plate stand is bent (see image). This is a used item that has been stored at home for a long time, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such things. [Product Information] Origin: Arita Kiln: Yazaemon Kiln Size: Diameter 45cm Includes wooden box and plate stand This is a decorative plate with a gorgeous and detailed design unique to Arita ware, depicting a crane, an auspicious bird. Due to a change in direction by the seventh generation, such a large and flamboyant plate may become rare in the future. [Kiln Introduction: Yazaemon Kiln] Yazaemon Kiln is a historic kiln that was established by Matsumoto Yazaemon in the Bunka era. Around 1955, they actively exported traditional Arita ware under the brand name "Gold Imari" to North America and Europe. It is a kiln of Arita ware that was founded by the first Yazaemon in 1804. At the time of its founding, it was one of the kilns that received a "Kiln Representative Tag" from the Nabeshima clan. At one point, it was forced to close down, and they left the kiln work to engage in banking and porcelain sales. When the fifth generation successfully exported traditional Arita ware under the brand name "Gold Imari" to North America and Europe, they rebuilt the long-awaited "Yazaemon Kiln" in 1957, which became the foundation of the current kiln. Due to the adoption of a floating exchange rate system during the sixth generation, the export business declined, and they incurred a large debt. In order to rebuild the business, the seventh generation developed new modern Arita ware that matches modern life, and it seems that they are developing the brand "ARITA PORCELAIN LAB."
