Description

9 Inch Chokin Plate in very good condition.

Chokin plates are exquisite works of art originating from ancient Japan, characterized by intricate etching and gilding with precious metals. This tradition, which reached its zenith in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, continues to thrive today. Skilled artisans meticulously etch intricate designs, often depicting scenes from nature and Japanese culture, onto metal surfaces. The plates are then gilded with precious metals, creating a luminous contrast. These plates hold timeless elegance, cultural significance, and high collectibility due to their craftsmanship and rarity. Chokin art represents a cherished tradition that continues to enchant enthusiasts around the world, offering a glimpse into the rich heritage of Japanese metalwork.
