The piece is finished in a rich, mottled cobalt and sky-blue glaze that creates a textured, organic backdrop for the three cranes in flight. The cranes are detailed with metallic gold and white enamel, reflecting light beautifully when displayed. A hand-applied gold rim frames the 8-inch diameter, grounding the ethereal blue tones. Produced during the late 20th century for export, this plate represents the intersection of traditional Japanese motifs and mid-century aesthetic sensibilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecs\u003cbr\u003e• Maker\/Artist: Unknown (Original \"Made in Japan\" foil label present)\u003cbr\u003e• Year Made: circa 1980s\u003cbr\u003e• Materials: Stoneware, Enamel, Gold Leaf\/Gilding\u003cbr\u003e• Dimensions: 1\" H x 8\" W x 8\" D\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition\u003cbr\u003eThe plate is in excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, or crazing.
