Title: ID needed for a small dish
Post by: uksweetheart on February 26, 2011, 07:59:32 PM

Hi, I was wondering if someone could ID the mark on the base of a small pretty blue dish I got from a house clearance. I've really taken a liking to it and was just wondering about it's history.
thank you for any help.

Hi Keith, no I don't mind you posting the pics on a forum. Thank you for any help what so ever. It had me puzzled also when I saw it, never seen a mark like it before.

Have heard back from the forum and it seems you have a late 20th century Japanese export bowl,the marks on the base are(they believe)a studio mark,if I hear anything else I'll let you know ;D
