Antique Japanese 19thC Imari Ceramic Plate Hawk & Fan 9.5"

This is an antique Japanese late Edo Era (mid 19th century) Imari hand painted plate.  This plate measures 9.5" in diameter by 1 1/4" tall (24 x 3 cm). Having been in storage for most of the past century this plate remains in very fine condition with no chips, cracks or hairlines. Some wear on of the gilding helps age the piece and show it's authenticity.

A beautiful example of Japanese workmanship and aesthetic.
