Message Yes, I saw your sign and it strikes me as Chinese but I can't figure out what it is supposed to be about. There aren't any easy answers to your question. I don't know Japanese sources well but you can find some excellent sources on the internet by searching by medium, eg "Japanese signatures on netsuke/Satsuma/ukiyo-e" etc. Specialized reference books and websites/dictionaries also exist that won't help you without some existing language skill. Some less specialized but excellent references for marks on Chinese porcelain include Gerald Davison's book and information at the Gotheborg.com website and discussion board. Post a Response |
