Subject:Request help identifying mark on Japanese saucer
Posted By: Carmen Jac Wed, Nov 13, 2019 IP: 213.93.230.53
Greetings all,

After ample research, I can't seem to find any clue as to what this mark on the back of my 6-piece porcelain saucer set means.

I'd be forever thankful if you could take a look at the pictures attached / visit the Flickr album for more photos of the set.

Kind regards,
Carmen

The reading of this marking is
"Kanehan"
半　han inside of 乁, straight shanked hook which is called in Japanese "kane" (金）= metals. It is not a Chinese (Japanese) character, but a trademark.

With regards,
I.Nagy
