White Crane Platter
This beautifully crafted platter features the design of two cranes facing each other. The pine trees and waves drawn in the background are common sights on the coast of Japan where pine trees are often planted. It is an eye-catching plate with beautiful colors and bold composition of Kutani color.
It is hand-painted by brush, using Japanese paint called wa-enogu which is one of the remarkable elements of Kutani ware, as you can see the painted part is slightly thickened.
The large platter is perfect for serving main dishes, an assortment of appetizers, or sushi. It can be set as a decorative art piece.
