Subject:Satsuma Vases

Just acquired these mirror image Satsuma vases. Does anyone know the mark and/or age?

Thanks,
Howard Dennis

Thanks, I'll add these Chinese marks to my bookmarks. Why would you send this link to look up Japanese marks??

The link is great for Chinese Republic period marks,but this is indeed Japanese Satsuma. The maker's mark says "Kochida", and I would date your vases to the 1950s.

Nice pair of hand painted Satsuma Koshida vases, probably post-WWII Showa period.

Thanks for the help, just for my own knowledge, I was able to find the mark online but their example is a red background mark and mine is black. Is that what dates them as post war?
