About the Item

Set of 4 salad/occasional plates in Alpha 3 pattern was designed by Kaneaki Fujimori for Kato Kogei Japan in 1980s. Alpha 3 series consists of mugs, salad/casual plates, and decorative serving platter. The plates in the set are decorated with highly colorful striped design influenced by Memphis Milano style. Porcelain plates were made in Nagoya, Japan; unusual asymmetric, angular geometric shape of the plates supports and adds intensity to the playful colors and shapes of the Post-Modern style of decoration. Kaneaki Fujimori (1935-) graduated from college in 1958, majoring in oil painting and design, and worked as a designer for a major American ceramics company in Chicago. In 1963 Fujimori returned to Japan to work as a freelance designer for ceramic companies in Nagoya. He received multiple prestigious national art awards, and in 1980s Fujimori became the art director for Kato Kogei, a major supplier of Japanese ceramics to the international markets. The plates are marked at the bottom with "Fujimori Collection Alpha 3 Kato Kogei Japan"; they measure 8.25" in diameter. The plates are in good vintage condition; one plate has slight manufacturing glaze defect at the protruding triangular corner (please see pictures). The plates come with the original box that shows light signs of wear and the original card that came with the set.
