ABOUT PRODUCTID 6080
This large bowl from the Meiji period, crafted in Japan at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, embodies the classic blue-and-white palette characteristic of Japanese porcelain. Made from smooth, subtly translucent porcelain and finished with a glossy glaze, the piece features meticulously hand-painted chrysanthemum motifs both inside and out. The scalloped rim lends a soft, undulating silhouette, while the generous proportions—25 cm in diameter, with gently sloping sides and a 10.5 cm height—enhance its versatility as both a functional and decorative object. The base measures 11 cm across. Minor wear is visible at the foot, and there is a small, professionally executed restoration along the upper edge. Overall, the bowl remains in very good condition, retaining its authenticity and collectible value. This piece reflects the spirit of Meiji-era Japan—a time when tradition met modernity. The quiet white and nuanced cobalt blue tell a story of a world in transition, where craftsmanship remained paramount. The undulating rim suggests the rolling sea viewed from a Tokyo shore, while the hand-painted chrysanthemums—symbols of longevity and harmony—hint that every fleeting moment can be preserved in porcelain. The lustrous glaze catches light
