This stunning porcelain Imari-yaki bowl from the late Edo period features an Akadama (Red Circle) motif on the outside with a colorful interior.

The Akadama (red circle) motif portrays a brightly shining orb like the sun. And so, this symbol also represents Japan itself, the land of the rising sun.

The inside of the bowl features a flowering red and gold Karakusa design. Karakusa, a traditional Japanese print, means "winding plant" and this stylized pattern of plant spirals symbolizes vitality, prosperity and longevity.
