Vintage Mid-Century Japan Scalloped Porcelian Hand Painted Mini-Dishes Set of 3. These dishes date back to the mid‑20th‑century export era and feature vibrant, glossy cream‑colored bases embellished with hand‑painted floral motifs and accented with heavy gold gilding. Set of Three D‑54 Miniature Dishes. Vintage Japanese Porcelain Set of Three D‑54 Miniature Dishes Description: Up for sale is a vintage 3‑piece miniature dish set crafted from fine Japanese porcelain. These dishes date back to the mid‑20th‑century export era and feature vibrant, glossy cream‑colored bases embellished with hand‑painted floral motifs and accented with heavy gold gilding. The D‑54 batch stamps on the bases indicate small‑run production rather than mass‑market manufacturing. Artistry, Shape, Purpose: The asymmetrical Rococo‑style square design, featuring a singular wave‑like corner swirl indentation identical across all three dishes, adds an elegant sense of movement. This distinctive molding is highly characteristic of mid‑century Japanese porcelain export ware, offering both visual interest and a refined edge when handling the delicate ceramic. Each dish is framed by a heavily gilded, scalloped rim and finished with hand‑painted gold floral motifs. Perfect for dipping sauces, condiments, small prep portions, and adding a fresh, understated touch to your kitchen aesthetic. Condition: Excellent pre‑owned vintage. Some minor age‑related wear to the gilding (a few very tiny and shallow chips along the rims). No cracks, crazing, staining, or fading. See photos for reference.
