Japanese Chokin Art Calla Lily and Butterfly Porcelain Plate

A vintage decorative porcelain plate featuring the traditional Japanese art of Chokin. The central medallion is crafted from copper with engraved details, then gilded with gold and silver accents. The motif depicts a cluster of elegant calla lilies with textured petals and foliage, topped by a detailed butterfly in flight. The central art is set against a matte, textured metallic background and is framed by two concentric gold-gilded bands on a white porcelain body. The wide outer rim is finished with a heavy gold gilt finish. To the left of the flower stems, there are discernible Japanese characters, likely a signature or maker's mark associated with the artist or studio. The quality of the engraving indicates high-level craftsmanship, typical of late 20th-century giftware produced for the export market. The condition appears very good overall, with minor smudging and light fingerprint patina on the gold rim, which is common for this type of reflective finish. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant abrasions to the central Chokin panel, preserving the integrity of the mixed-metal work.
