SATSUMA MEDIUM PORCELAIN PLATE. JAPANESE. TAISHO. 9

Description:
- Porcelain dish of Japanese origin, in the classic Satsuma style.
- We include it in the Taisho era (1912-1926).
- It is a beautiful golden coloured dish, with several characteristic Japanese figures. All hand-painted. It is of medium size.
- The dish is of medium thickness, with a sound to the touch, made of white porcelain.
- The figures, painted in great detail, depict four men expressing aggression, against two women expressing patience.
- All the figures are intertwined by a dragon with scales in white enamel relief.
- The white enamel is visible at the base, and the seal of the mark is stamped in its centre. This stamp includes a series of signs in gilding on a dark red, which probably identify the place of manufacture, the period and the name of the maker.
- All of these features give the dish a very interesting patina, with a very attractive and high quality appearance.

Conservation and Damage:
- The plate is in good condition.
- There are no hairs or chipped parts.
- Some areas show wear to the paint and the gilding, but this is not very significant. Some of the paint on the eyes has come off on two of the men.
- It shows wear and tear typical of it’s age.
