Light reflecting layer having thin metal film directly or via a primer coating on individual particles of single-layer coating

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal cell with a liquid crystal layer held between a pair of transparent substrates opposed to each other and each having at least a display electrode on the internal side thereof, and
• a light reflecting plate reflecting incident light, which is provided on the external side of one of the transparent substrates,
• wherein the light reflecting plate comprises a substrate provided with a binder layer, a single-layer powder coating provided on the substrate by laying powder particles in a state of a monoparticle layer such that said powder particles are fixed by the binder layer to cover the substrate, and a thin metal film laminated directly or via a primer coating on the individual particles of the single-layer powder coating.
