"Ida was in her boudoir, a tiny little tapestried room, as neat and dainty as herself, with low walls hung with Imari plaques and with pretty little Swiss brackets bearing blue Kaga ware, or the pure white Coalport china.
A bit more name-dropping by Conan Doyle. I found a site mentioning two Japanese porcelain Imari bowls,for five hundred bucks
