Vintage Japanese Kutani Hand-Painted Plate – Geisha & Landscape, Signed, 18cm

A beautifully hand-painted Japanese porcelain plate, featuring a multi-panel design with elegant geisha figures and serene landscape scenes. Decorated in rich iron-red, soft greens, and black with delicate gold highlights and moriage-style detailing. The central scene shows a seated noblewoman and attendant, while other panels depict natural settings with birds, reeds, and hills. A fine collector’s piece marked on the reverse with a red leaf-shaped seal and gold characters, indicative of early Showa-era Kutani or Kyoto-style craftsmanship.
