This is a beautiful group of 3 coffee saucer plates (measuring only 4.5 inches each ),handpainted with different scenes in exquisite detail.They are made of eggshell porcelain,probably Satsuma or Kutani and they are signed on the back.Unfortunately l can make out only the last four characters of the kanji(dai ni pon zo-made in Great Japan)so the 2 first, which are probably the name of the maker remain a mystery to me,l have a clue but l am not sure.l love the detail and grace of each,every time l see some new ,appreciate the time and effort to make ,probably with a single hair brush.Thank you for reading,if any questions, dont hesitate to ask,please check my other items.
