Subject:Handpainted Ginger Jar
Posted By: C.L Lewis Thu, Sep 04, 2014 IP: 70.15.51.33 Could anyone provide information on this piece? I believe it is a ginger jar, but have never come across one footed like this & i am not familiar with the markings. I'd appreciate any input -- thank you! |

Posted By: Mike in Thailand Fri, Sep 05, 2014 This is a somewhat common piece of Japanese Kutani. It was made for export. Dating would be from the early 20th century. Sorry, I cannot help with the translation. |
