Description from the seller

Pair of antique Japanese cloisonné enamel (shippo) plates, made during the Meiji period (1868-1912). Both plates are in excellent condition with minimal signs of age.
Hangers in the back are included.
They will be shipped with extra protection, insurance, and a tracking number for shipment.

Cloisonné or shippoyaki involves attaching fine metal wires (usually copper or brass) to a bronze base to create compartments, which are then filled with enamel pastes of various colors before being fired and meticulously polished.
Both pieces feature a central medallion on a reddish-brown background depicting a mythological phoenix (hō-ō) in flight. They have an elegant lobed and scalloped design, intricately decorated with lotus flower motifs and polychrome geometric patterns that alternate between shades of blue, green, black, and pink.
