ID help please
« on: June 18, 2011, 07:04:03 PM »
Have had this 5" what appears to be porcelain vase for ages, have sat, in quiet moments, with my book scouring through it but cannot find anything that resembles this mark. :bh:  Any ideas please

mmmmmmm I found a pretty good site which shows nearly every chinese mark ever done I think after you mentioned chinese, but still didn't come up with anything.  Could it be English as some English potter's marks look Chinese?

WOW you are soooooooooooo clever, thank God for peeps in the know or I would have no hair by now, thanks so much.  NOW I can do some more investigation. 1 down, several more to go.
