Fine Arita-yaki (有田焼) porcelain plate, made in the Hizen (肥前) region, one of Japan's oldest ceramic production centers. This refined piece, typical of the Meiji period (1868–1912), embodies the virtuosity of Arita artisans.
It features a carefully hand-painted decoration, composed of:
- Stylized three-lobed leaves in cobalt blue and indigo, enhanced with fine gold lines,
- A poetic scene of the Japanese countryside, with birds in flight, a winding stream, and tall grasses,
- A blue geometric frieze running along the undulating edge of the plate,
- A red seal with the kanji 肥 (Hi), an abbreviated mark for Hizen, a classic signature of Meiji Arita productions.
🦝 Our opinion:
A delicate and poetic piece, typical of Arita's craftsmanship at the end of the 19th century. We particularly appreciate the contrast between the deep blues and the gilded accents, as well as the peaceful scene evoking a stylized Japanese landscape.

By purchasing from Kogedo, you are helping to keep traditional Japanese crafts and culture alive.
