A large round Japanese lacquer tray, the dark green-black ground painted with nine cranes in flight in red and gold, within a red lacquer rim. Signed with seal mark.
Cranes are an emblem of long life and good fortune in Japan, and with so much open ground around them these really do look airborne. Lovely on a sideboard or ottoman, hung on a wall, or used for serving.
Japanese, probably mid-20th century.
Condition: Good vintage condition. Fine scratches to the surface, some small chips and lacquer loss to the rim, and scratches and wear to the underside. Please see the photos.
Height: 4.5cm
Diameter: 51cm
