Subject:Mark on Japanese small vase
Posted By: Martin Michels Sat, Apr 06, 2019 IP: 84.26.211.226

I recently bought this small porcelain vase (9 cm high) mainly because the mark intriges me.
It starts on the right with Shiba シバ in Japanese Katakana writing, but then???
I think it was made in the 1960's - 1970's, but I did not find anything about a Shiba company making porcelain.
Perhaps I can find out more if I know what's written in the mark, it's too stylistic for me to unravel it.
So If someone please can help me with that, I would be much obliged.
Thanks in advance,
Martin.

シバ輸出株式會社印 - Seal of Shiba Yushutsu Kabushiki-gaisha - Shiba Export Co.,Ltd

I can't find the trace of company with this name on the net. Presumably a pre-WWII export company.

With regards,
I.Nagy
