Plate

A round plate in the Jitaisome Jippo (lacquered cloisonne porcelain) technique. Two geese are flying over chrysanthemums with a tree bark ground and geometric border.

Metal wires are laid into a porcelain body which is then lacquered and polished to give a finish similar to enamel cloisonne. This type of work was mostly made in the Nagoya area of Japan where there was a history of lacquered porcelain going back to the 1870s.
