Thank you for viewing. This is a namasu dish purchased at an antique market. First of all, the colors are vibrant. The Taisho Roman design still resonates with me today. The inside appears to have a chrysanthemum pattern. A cute, slightly bright blue stamp is applied. The surroundings are divided by windows. One has a vermilion background with a plum blossom pattern. The vertical window to the right, if you look closely, has bamboo and pine. Together, this makes "shochikubai" (pine, bamboo, and plum), a symbol of good fortune. This is Taisho design. It's innovative. The adjacent scene is a landscape with a house and mountains. The dignified figure on the bridge is impressive. He is standing with his arms crossed, and beside him is perhaps a naginata (a type of Japanese bladed polearm). Naginata was included in physical education at girls' schools at the time, so this interpretation is not particularly strange. Enjoying the historical context like this is part of the fun of antiques. There is a clam-shaped chip on the rim. Otherwise, it appears to be kiln marks. Other than that, there don't seem to be any particularly noticeable large scratches or chips. Please check the images carefully. Size: Width: Approximately 15 cm Height: Approximately 4 cm
