This mid-century modern dinner plate reflects the post-war fascination with Japanese aesthetics in Western tableware design. The minimalist composition featuring traditional Japanese motifs like origami cranes and bamboo became popular in the 1950s-1960s as cultural exchange between Japan and the West flourished. Such pieces were often produced by both Japanese manufacturers for export and Western companies inspired by Japanese design principles.
No maker’s mark/brand. The plate is 10.25” and weighs 1lb. 2oz.
