I know there are several qualities of "Imari". There are some with many colors. I'm not sure what yours is I'll look later and see.

I'm sorry, the only "Imari" I found are the ones I'm familiar with. They have bright patterns and have beautiful artwork. They have reds and blues and gold colors. Those would be the good pieces.  Are you sure it's "Imari"?

It appears to be hand done rather than stenciled,, and poorly at that !!  Imari was very well crafted and beautiful !!
