Old Kutani Hand-Painted Plate, Edo Period, Japan
An Old Kutani hand-painted porcelain plate from the late Edo period in Japan (estimated 19th century), in excellent condition — an antique ceramic that combines hand-applied color, rich decoration and cultural value. The composition shows wild geese flying over a lakeshore, clusters of chrysanthemums and distant mountains and woods; the scene is full but not cluttered, and the blank background contrasts sharply with the border patterns — exactly the aesthetic characteristic of Edo-period Kutani ware.
