Transfer-Printed Small Dishes – Set of 3

Origin: Japan
Size: Diameter approx. 11 cm
Material: Ceramic

This small dish is decorated using a technique known as inban (transfer printing), which developed in Japan during the Meiji period. Unlike traditional hand-painted porcelain, inban allows for the use of stencils or transfer sheets, making it possible to produce porcelain in large quantities and at lower cost—an innovation that made such wares widely accessible to the general public.
