Description

This elegant decorative plate showcases the exquisite artistry of sometsuke through its intricate motif, hand-painted by master artisan Yamamoto Choza. Detailed renderings of blossoms, avian forms, and graceful arabesque curves convey auspicious themes and refined tradition. 

The plate vividly demonstrates the artisan's extraordinary skill, with every element—whether the delicate blossoms or the elaborate arabesque patterns—meticulously painted through fine, precise brushstrokes. Subtle shifts in color, with variations in depth and intensity, further elevate its beauty.

This plate boasts an exquisitely refined exterior design, while its interior is subtly segmented by raised ridges. The interplay of light on the contoured surface evokes the shimmering effect of sunlight on water, adding a vibrant, liquid allure to the overall blue-and-white aesthetic.

The porcelain base, formed using the katauchi technique, exhibits a thin, uniformly consistent finish, while the glaze softens the details during firing to impart a serene, almost ethereal quality. A seamless fusion of form and decoration, this plate reflects exceptional craftsmanship and a deep reverence for Japan’s cultural heritage.
