Vintage Japanese Studio Pottery Plate
This hand-painted stoneware plate features a whimsical "Moon Rabbit" (Tsuki no Usagi) amidst tall grasses, a classic Japanese symbol of luck and progression. The rim is accented with deep emerald green splashes in the tradition of Oribe-ware, creating a beautiful contrast against the warm, speckled oatmeal glaze.
Each stroke of the rabbit is unique, rendered in a swift, calligraphic style that brings a sense of movement to the piece. The back features a hand-brushed blue artist’s signature, marking it as a piece of studio-made pottery rather than mass-produced stoneware.
Details
Origin: Japan (Mino-ware region)
Material: Glazed Stoneware
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. No chips, cracks, or crazing.
Diameter: 24 cm
