Subject:Help needed! 4 characters on base of Imari bowl
Posted By: Ben Sun, Mar 08, 2020 IP: 64.79.61.125

I would be exceedingly grateful for anyone's help translating the characters on the base of this Imari bowl! Is there any indication of the age of the bowl?

The mark reads: Fuki 富貴 Choshun 長春 which means "Wealth, Nobility and Everlasting Spring", also translated as "Good fortune and long life" or "Wealth, Nobility, Longevity and Youth".
Date: Meiji period (1868-1911).
Regards,
Martin.
