Posted By: Tony Thu, Sep 23, 2021 IP: 2607:fb90:5b01:8b22:

Dear friends,
I would really appreciate you help as for cultural style and period on this modern looking metal plate (11” diameter).
🙏😊

It looks bronze / brass at some scratched areas, but areas of rusty can be seen on the back !?!

Conventional wisdom holds that three-clawed dragons usually are Japanese. On this basis and the indication in your second photo that the plate's bottom may have been turned on a modern lathe, I'd say it is probably a post-World War II product.

Thanks so much Bill H. for your time and opinion 🙏😊🙏
By the way, I recall seeing on the website of one of those major auction houses listing of a rare Blue and White porcelain with painting of a winged Chinese dragon 😊
