Description
A fantastic example of Japanese Satsuma ware, hand painted and depicting a Samurai Warrior.
n
nThe strength and power of the swordsman is so beautifully captured in detail on this piece. One of a kind as no two would be possible to replicate exactly.
n
nYou can see the textured paint work from the photos and the contrasting smooth features of the warrior’s face. The back of the plate is also painted with scroll work and floral design. Just wonderful!
n
nThis dates from around 1900-1910 and is in a perfect condition with no chips or cracks. There is a slight imperfection to the border where the glaze ran during firing and the gilding was touched up, but all original in the making of the plate.

nMeasures 43cm across.
