Subject:Satsuma mark ID
Posted By: Glass House Sun, Apr 05, 2015 IP: 24.74.103.221

Could anyone help with translating/ID'ing the maker of this Satsuma vase?

Thank you!

I read the mark as 近山製造, 'Kinzan seizo' (manufactured by Kinzan). Did not find further references to a Satsuma workshop with the name 'Kinzan', written in this manner.

actually it says "匠山製造“. 匠山 most likely being a small location in Japan, or a family name.
