THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL MID TO LATE 20th CENTURY CANDY DISH. THE HAND PAINTED SCENE DEPICTS TWO ORIENTAL LADIES ENJOYING THE BEAUTY AND SERENITY OF THEIR JAPANESE GARDEN. THE BACKGROUND INCLUDES A VOLCANO AND OTHER HOUSES ACROSS A FOOTBRIDGE. THE DISH IS TOPPED BY A HAND PAINTED BIRD THAT COULD BE USED AS A HANDLE. BOTTOM IS MARKED MADE IN JAPAN, SIGNED AND NUMBERED.
MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 6 1/2 INCHES LONG, 4 INCHES WIDE AND STANDS 2 INCHES TO THE BIRDS HEAD.
VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH NO CHIPS OR CRACKS. THERE IS A REPAIR OF THE BIRD'S BEAK. IT LOOKS LIKE IT MAY HAVE HAPPENED DURING PRODUCTION BECAUSE THE REPAIR IS PAINTED AND GLAZED.
PLEASE REVIEW THE PICTURES CLOSELY.
