Product Details

Matte-glazed ceramic bowl featuring a dark grey and white smoke/cloud background. It displays a dramatic hand-painted mythical dragon in raised moriage (piped clay) enamel with white, orange, blue, and black detailing. Formed with a decorative lobed/scalloped rim accented in white enamel and gold trim. Highly desirable among "Dragonware" collectors. The 3D texture and dramatic mythical motif make it an eye-catching display dish for curio cabinets, Asian art collections, or as a catchall accent on a side table. Dragonware remains one of the most recognizable and sought-after niches in mid-century Japanese export ceramics.
