A hand-decorated Japanese plate in the geisha-ware tradition — kimono-clad figures gathered among peonies in a garden, with pagodas, sailboats, and Mount Fuji rising in the distance. Fine red and gilt linework throughout, with raised enamel beading on the blossoms and a rust-red rim. The kind of richly storied small plate that earns its keep on an easel or layered into a gallery wall.
