Subject:Satsuma mark
Posted By: margaret gaerig Wed, Jul 03, 2019 IP: 2603:9009:70e:d900:4 Hello - I have had this charger in my collection for quite some time. It is 14-1/4"W x 2-1/4", and presumed to be made in the late 1800s-early 1900s. |

Posted By: Bill H Thu, Jul 04, 2019 The mark reads down and across from the right as "Imperial or Great Japan" (Dai Nippon), "Satsuma Ware" (Satsuma yaki, underneath the Shimazu crest), and Hododa, who was artist, maker and exporter. See the link for a recent related exchange in the forum. |
