The mark reads 'Toun iru' (渡雲鋳 - casted by Toun) followed by a 'kakihan'.
The artist is the late Edo - early Meiji era metalworker Kimura Toun, pupil of Murata Seimin.
This is early Meiji metalwork from the 1870s with a paulownia pattern, not made for export.

Guy.

Guy, thank you very much for taking the time to share your knowledge on the bowl. Regards,Richard

Value? Does anyone have an idea what this bowl may be worth? Just a ballpark figure would be ok. thanks
