    Hello all

    My husband inherited this from his mother, and I was curious to see if anyone knew of it origins etc.

    The picture appears to be in-bedded into the plate itself.It measure 29cm (11 1/4 inches) diameter. It's made of glass of some sort.

    TIA.
    Regards
    Bianca

      I usually see these plates with kimono silk in them. I like this woven picture!
      These seemed popular in the 70s and the fabric is embedded in the glass. I have seen them with a Kano Brand sticker but don't know if this is the same or another brand.
