These are Shiseido Hanatsubaki appreciation plates. The plate with the exotic bird design is based on the artwork of Althea Wilson, a London artist. The theme is "Paradise." The plate with flowers and musical instruments was designed by Hélène Tran, who was highly regarded as a top European illustrator at a young age. It is full of a distinctly European sensibility and feminine esprit. These items can also be enjoyed as decorative plates. Thank you for looking.
