Subject:Chinese Bronze Ritual Plate - please help identify mark
Posted By: SamR Mon, May 25, 2015 IP: 50.10.243.155 At least that's what I'm going it. It is a bronze plate/dish that has a lighting bolt design. It is also marked on its base. It measures approximately 5" across and an 1" in height. the base is 2". Can someone please tell me what it is, it age and what the marking reads. Thank you

Posted By: rat Tue, May 26, 2015 This is Japanese, not Chinese, commemorating a dam or some sort of hydropower in Toyama prefecture, dated to the 9th year of the Taisho reign period, which should be 1920. Try reposting as Japanese see if some of the Japan experts weigh in.
