Description from the seller
Rare and elegant Japanese porcelain set signed MARUNI Japan, comprising a presentation plate paired with a creamer (or small pitcher), produced in the prestigious Kutani style, famous for its rich enamels, meticulous decorations, and generous gold highlights.
The set features refined iconography depicting court figures in a decor inspired by traditional Japanese motifs. Each detail reflects significant decoration work: abundant gilding, cloisonné relief enamels, a deep palette blending cobalt blue, green, brown, orange, and ivory, with a remarkable balance between delicate drawing and the brilliance of color.
The bottom of the creamer bears the MARUNI JAPAN mark, a brand known for high-quality export porcelains produced in the first half of the 20th century. The productions of this manufacturer are today sought after by collectors of Japanese ceramics and decorative porcelain.
This ensemble constitutes a particularly attractive decorative piece, ideal both for enriching a collection of Japanese porcelains and for display in a classic or contemporary interior.
