A Small 17th Century Japanese Blue and White Porcelain Dish

Genroku Period 1688 - 1704

A Small Finely Painted Japanese Dish, Perhaps Kakiemon Kilns, Genroku Period 1688 – 1704. This small Japanese serving dish looks very much like Kakiemon but it is possible that it is from the Arita kilns but in the Kakiemon style. The scene of a waterfall with flowering prunus is carefully thought out and executed. The interior ‘cash’ design is blue with a blue ground, the design is repeated to the exterior but without a blue ground. The base has a single spur mark from the kiln support.
