Posted By: Bill H Sat, Dec 28, 2019 Your shishi is Japanese, probably late 20th century and from the Kutani region, which may be reflected in the base-markings which I can't handle in Japanese. Here's a pair about 6.25 inches high with the mark a bit more readable, Kutani being the stack reading down on the right. |
