very attractive modern Japanese platter, imitating Chinese Jun ware.


Here's a photo with the same sticker on a similarly glazed object.

Visiting the page the photo is linked with suggests this item went unsold in Rakuten auction (Japanese company akin to ebay) for about $20:

Planter, not platter. These were commonly used as narcissus planters.
