 This is a representative example of Nabeshima 5″ dish in overglaze enamels from the heyday of Nabeshima ware. Two cranes and crane on water plants are depicted in black overglaze enamels, with blue ocean waves in black ink on the sides. The cranes and crane are represented in black overglaze pigment, and such a color scheme has never been seen before except on dishes with crane and crane designs. The back of the dish is decorated with cloisonne patterns on three sides, and the base is a comb-shaped base. The rounded shape of the rising edge of the bowl is round and firm, showing the characteristics of the peak period without regret.
