Subject:Satsuma question - 14" dish
Posted By: Paul Wagner Wed, Sep 27, 2006 IP: 68.105.109.238 Ceramics are completely outside my area of expertise. I believe this piece is Satsuma. I would like to know if the artist is anyone of significance, approximately how old it is, and whether it has any value. |

Posted By: Mike Wed, Sep 27, 2006 Actually, this is most likely Kutani. I say that based on the decorative style and the mark. You don't say how large the piece is, but it dates to the 1st half of the 20th Century and has som decorative value. |

Posted By: Edward Shumaker Thu, Sep 28, 2006 Actually there was a hybrid of styles in the early 20th century, whereas you had some Kutani artisans that went to work in some of the Satsuma factories. |

Posted By: Edward Shumaker Fri, Sep 29, 2006 For your reference, five Satsuma plates attributed to Kinkozan. Though your plate was done by another artisan, yet the style is similiar. |

Posted By: Paul Wagner Sat, Sep 30, 2006 Thank you very much Mike, Keith and Edward for all of your valuable input. I also posted my inquiry on a kanji forum: http://www.jref.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26506 Between the responses there (especially by �undrentide�) and here, this is what I have come up with so far. |

Posted By: Paul Wagner Tue, Oct 03, 2006 Oct 3 update: I'm learning so much! I have now learned that it is common for these papers to say that a piece was "made" by the master artist, when in fact it could have been made by anyone in his workshop. |
