Arita Ware Kosara Hand Painted Ume Plum Blossom Dish Gold Rim Japanese Art This artisanal Arita-ware kosara features a hand-painted ume (plum blossom) motif rendered with a refined sense of ma (intentional negative space). The artist uses a limited, modern Arita palette-black ink-wash linework, teal accents, white enamel relief, and deep cobalt blue-creating a balanced, contemporary interpretation of a traditional subject. Fine gold detailing highlights the branches, and the gilded scalloped rim adds an elegant finishing touch. The brushwork is crisp yet expressive, with thin, controlled lines and soft washes that showcase the discipline of modern Arita studio production. The composition feels airy and intentional, allowing the blossoms to float within the form of the dish. This small fish measures approx 5 1/4" in diameter. Weight: It is highly collectible on its own and also works well as a replacement piec. Vintage condition with no chips or cracks. The piece has been carefully inspected and is clean, smooth, and display-ready, ideal for collectors of Japanese ceramics, Arita studio ware, or small-format decorative dishes.
