This pattern of this piece fans out around a central circle. It has is origins in a Japanese design that has been freely interpreted with the addition of a red pigment that is not present in the original. This in the author’s opinion is a harmonising improvement.
Condition: Very Good. The white part of the print’s surface has browned at the edges. There are a few other very small marks across the surface but it is in the main fresh and clean.
