Subject:Double Goard vase Identification

Posted By: Guy Tue, Apr 12, 2016 I read it in Japanese as 'Shusei' (守成); seal not read. |

Posted By: rat Tue, Apr 12, 2016 Not Chinese, but Japanese or Korean. 宇城 is the name of a place in Japan (Uki), but may instead be a Korean or other maker's name. |

Posted By: Guy Thu, Apr 14, 2016 Rat's reading is correct, i.e. 宇城, 'Uki' in Japanese but I find no references at all. |

Posted By: Guy Fri, Apr 15, 2016 Had another look at the seal. The correct writing is 宇成. It's indeed by a Korean maker, specialized in Goreya celadon ware. |
