Does anybody have any information on a green dragonfly mark? I cant find anything on it.

Brandon,

The past 10 years I've been busy with Japanese porcelain marks, but I've never seen this one before. It's a pity that the circular mark is worn so much, might have given more information.
And a vase like this: also never seen before, so sorry, I can't help you more.
Regards,
Martin.

Thank you Martin, I appreciate you taking the time to respond. I am an avid collector of Japanese porcelain myself and have never came across a vase of this style or a green dragonfly mark, I couldn't find anything in any of my book or on the internet anywhere.. I considered it being newer since it was so unfamiliar to be but I really dont believe that could be the case. As for the black circle mark, I have seen some (I forget where) where there were four characters inside, it looks to be this is one of those marks..
For the date the piece was made, if you had to guess do you think late 19th century would be fairly accurate?
It doesn't seem like something that would be made for export to me either, mainly because I haven't seen something like this before and exports generally have tons of examples..

Looking at the quality of this vase, I agree, late 19th C.
