Floral "Hand Painted in Japan" Plate

[bokaba]

Hi Stan,

I came across this floral dish marked "Hand Painted in Japan." I don't think it is very old, but perhaps 1960s? It looks well painted though the outline might be a transfer decoration.

Thank you

supposedly it is hand painted but looks transfer. According to gotheborg this is a Hotta Yu Shoten & Co. They wen't out of business in 1947 But it does seem more recent.

I would say this is from the 20's, note "japan" Made in Japan came later, this is Noritake Co. Heavenguy is right it is printed.
