A Pair of Small Plates Made in Japan

Here is a cute pair of small plates that were made in Japan. They are approximately 5.5 inches in diameter. Each displays a charming scene with decorative details and a lusterware band. Both plates are marked "Japan" in a red wreath.

The plates are in good shape for their age. They display age related wear to the gold high lights but the graphics display great. There is also a roughness to the gold edge of one plate but it is not damaged.

These are vintage items which have a rich history. While I do my best to provide an accurate description, please closely review the photos to admire these items and review their unique history and idiosyncrasies.
