Subject:Japanese Plaque
Posted By: Mike Sun, Jan 24, 2016 IP: 86.159.112.89 Can anyone provide any information on this ceramic plaque (6.5 inches diameter) which appears to show a stylized lotus flower and possibly translate the inscription on the back?

Posted By: Robert Tue, Jan 26, 2016 Looks like a Japanese mon (family crest). Perhaps it was originally mounted in a box or other furnishing or decorative article before being converted into a medallion to wear round the neck.
