Subject:JAPANESE ?
Posted By: SKIPPY Thu, Dec 06, 2018 IP: 2600:1700:9981:47b0:

Thank you for looking... We need help with what the red characters say. What is this item used for and is there a pattern name? About 8 inches wide and high and relatively thick ceramic.

Please confirm Japanese.

Thank you.

It is Japanese, and the inscription says,
祝健康 - Wish you good health !
六角村 - Rokkakumura (Hexagonal Village)

A fictional village name in Aomori Prefecture from "The Kindaichi Case Files" mystery manga series
(1992)
I hope an expert on ceramics will comment on the pattern etc

With regards,
I.Nagy
