<p>[QUOTE="kentworld, post: 9468649, member: 35"]I'm going to differ a bit here. Late 19th c. The scene isn't Japanese, but a generic European landscape scene. It is hand-painted, but that bright gilding that wears like that wasn't only Japanese, but some German factories used similar too. The fact that the base colour is only on the front also points to "cheap and cheerful" wares. So, continental, likely German -- some German factories made a lot of souvenir ware at the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
