Subject:Set of 5 Japanese Eggshell Dishes With Inscribed Wooden Case
Posted By: Kevin Donnelley Tue, Jun 15, 2021 IP: 69.120.217.178

Hi All,
the neatly handmade dishes with their plumb blossom and branch decorations were painted with overglaze enamels. Each has a tall foot rim with a tall point at the midsection of the foot.
the custom case was made w/ 5 separate shelves on the interior was put together with wooden posts rather than nails or tacks to hold it together.
Hoping to learn more about the dishes and a translation of the writing.

H: 1 1/2"; 3.8cm
Diam: 5"; 12.7cm
Thank you for looking

Kind regards

Kevin
