After looking through my own notebook on marks could this be Kusube Yaichi?

Hi Keith,

After a bit of eye straining myself, I had come to the same conclusion regarding the mark probably being "Kusube" ( “í•” ), but there's no clue from the mark itself as to whether it is the potter Kusube Yaichi (1897-1984) or his father Sennosuke (1859-1941). Here are links to earlier discussions which I surmise are the basis of your notes:

Many thanks,in searching for images of his work all I can find are cats,the pieces I have are 'cobalt' blue vases,I've even tried to email a couple of Japanese museums.
