My mother brought the plate/bowl from Japan during the 1980s. I don't know if it was a gift or whether it she bought it. I cannot read the marking on the back and am not even sure I've photographed it "right-side" up. Could you give me a better idea about this plate?

Hello Mary, Thank you for choosing Mearto for your appraisal. Based on the images, this item is: An inspired Song Longquan celadon plate, with a very particular intricate design. The fat glaze look ok, the color is good, stand stand looks original and the shape is also ok I believe. My estimation is based on an not restored ore damaged piece. This piece dates back to mid 20th century, and its design differs from typical glazed pottery. Rare piece.
