Posted By: Arjan Wed, Aug 01, 2018 B.t.w. (and for what it's worth) |

Posted By: Robert Thu, Aug 02, 2018 My first thought was also a mid-Edo (18th century) dating from the rather sophisticated design, the support scars, slightly rippled glaze, and the clean, white porcelain biscuit at the foot ring. |

Posted By: Robert Thu, Aug 02, 2018 As an afterthought I wonder if the broad floral scroll border and small central reserve are modeled after an earlier blue and white Delftware dish. |

Posted By: David Fri, Aug 03, 2018 Oh crumbs! So you think they maybe even be delftware? The Dutch do good porcelain but I would have sworn these were Japanese. I'm really taken aback at "even" the possibility. |

Posted By: David Fri, Aug 03, 2018 Maybe I read the sentiment of your message incorrectly Robert. My apologies for my clumsiness. These could be a design taken from a Dutch original and made in Arita. The Dutch were certainly big players in trading with Japan so influences would naturally cross. |

Posted By: Arjan Fri, Aug 03, 2018 Altough the distance between my hometown and Delft is less than an hour I don't know anything about delftware. |
Subject:Re: Edo plates or later?
Posted By: Robert Mon, Aug 06, 2018 Thanks. I just meant that floral scroll or arabesque decoration is not quintessentially Japanese. The Japanese may have seen it on Chinese porcelain or on Delftware. |

Posted By: David Thu, Aug 02, 2018 Thanks very much Arjan. |
