Add a touch of Japanese elegance to your interior with this vintage Kutani porcelain set from the 1940s. The set, consisting of four small plates and a sugar bowl with lid, is made of wafer-thin 'eggshell' porcelain. The iconic scene with Geishas and Mount Fuji in the background makes this a classic example of Japanese craftsmanship.
Each piece is hand-colored and shows a serene landscape in soft, earthy tones with vibrant color accents on the kimonos. The set originates from Japan and bears the characteristic red maker's mark. The delicate porcelain and detailed painting are typical of Kutani ceramics from this period.
This set has an authentic vintage character and is in good condition consistent with its age. It is a charming collection that looks beautiful as decoration in a display cabinet or can be used for a special occasion. The set fits perfectly into an interior with Asian or eclectic influences.
Mark on the bottom: Red hand-painted studio mark
(typical for this period).
Condition: Vintage, in beautiful condition - see photos for details. No major damage, light signs of use consistent with age. Gold rim slightly lighter in some places.
Perfect as decorative plates, for the tea table or for the collector of Japanese porcelain
