Featured Large Japanese Charger - This is the one in the other picture Komokwa

Hello Everyone - I have this large Japanese charger that Komokwa inquired about and I had to inform him I had very little information on it. I assumed it was produced sometime during the 1980's or 90's. If I remember right there was a flurry of Japanese items produced around that time - mostly tea sets, vases and plates. It measures 20" across. Can anyone give me any information about it. Thanks! Don

 

It's beautiful !

 

Thanks! The living room has a kind of peacock motif so I think that's why I picked it up.

 

It is gorgeous,and I think you might be right about the date.

 

That is printed rather than been painted, right?

 

Hi kard - Looks printed to me.

Hello,

Not too much information to give but its a 90s-00s Japanese plate with a transfer decoration in a pattern called Imari I think thats what the mark means as well). You will find this pattern from 18th century until yesterday its a very popular design. If you search Imari plate you will come up with many matches. Yo might want to try Gothburg for the exact marking.

 

Seems to be marked 丸五 Marugo.

 

Thanks again, DanielD and khl889!
