Set of 4 Vintage Japanese Kozan Gama Imari Porcelain Plates - Hand Finished Add timeless Asian elegance to your dining table or wall display with this beautiful, matched set of four vintage Japanese Imari-style porcelain plates. Produced in the late 20th century by the renowned Kozan Gama Kiln (庫山窯), these pieces are crafted in the traditional Mino Ware region and finished in the classic Arita palette of underglaze cobalt blue, iron-red, and radiant gold. Decoration Details: Each plate features a central medallion showcasing a hand-finished landscape scene—a peaceful countryside pavilion nestled among autumn trees, water, bamboo, and flowering branches. This center motif is beautifully framed by alternating decorative cartouches filled with floral sprays and geometric brocade panels. The scalloped, petal-shaped rim adds an elegant finishing touch characteristic of fine Japanese export ceramics. Markings & Build: Each plate bears an identical underglaze blue square seal script mark on the base for Kozan Gama, confirming they are a matched, original set. These pieces possess a satisfying weight and sturdy construction, designed to be beautifully displayed as cabinet art or carefully used as fine tableware.  Measurements: Diameter: Approximately 7.5 inches across per plate. Quantity: Sold together as a complete set of 4. Condition Details: All four plates are in excellent pre-owned vintage condition with no chips, cracks, structural hairlines, or repairs. The glazed finish remains bright, and the gold trim shows minimal to no visible rubbing wear.  Note on Plate C : One plate (marked "C" for identification) features a minor paint line from the original kiln manufacturing process, which is a normal occurrence consistent with the hand-painted nature of these pieces. Minor variations in detail between plates are normal and highlight their hand-finished production. Please review all photos carefully as they form part of the description.
