Imari Charger with Blue and Green Rooster Design
« on: December 19, 2013, 04:26:51 pm »
Hey guys,

Thanks for looking at my last post and letting me know that it wasn't a good buy.  I found this Imari Charger today and think that the colors are really strange.  I just snapped a picture of the front to see if you guys knew the style of design or when this design most likely was produced.  They are asking $95 for it so I am (again) hesitant on buying it since it is a style of Imari I am not really well versed in.  Thanks so much for all of the help.  Take care.

Have they really put 1915 on the charger ?!


Might be Japanese ( shape would suggest so ) but it's not Imari or Artita as we know it.


Just a bad transfer print.

It says that it was made around 1910 on the price tag.  I didn't get a picture of the bottom but it has some pretty good age to it.  I really like it even if it isn't Imari/Arita.  Can't really justify spending $95 on it though unless it was worth that.

Cant see it well but if it were me and I wanted it,,I would just make an offer !! All shops have an asking price  and a taking price !!  In this economy,, if its a fair offer and he makes a profit he would be stupid not to take it and keep his merchandise moving and fresh !!  He probably has $20. in it !!

Well i can't see the back but i'd say it was more modern than 1915. The colours and design are wrong for that period.
It's not horrific  ;D but the transfer seems quite poor in places ?

Wouldn't mind seeing the back because there's a chance they've just got the wrong location and have claimed it's Imari because of the shape and the rooster, although they aren't exactly common on Imari and Arita

I would like to see the back too !! That can usually tell you as much or more than the front can !!

Not typical Imari. Bottom or no bottom! ;D I would be curious though, and anyway I like a  good bottom once in a while.
