Can anyone translate the marks on this teacup and saucer? Thank you! David.

Your C&S is Japanese, marked 奇陶軒枡吉製, partially machine translated FYI only as 'Made by Masukichi at the Wonderful Pottery Studio'. Gotheborg.com indicates this to have been a mark of Kawamoto Masukichi II (1852-1918), a leading maker of porcelain in the Seto kiln area.

Best regards,

Bill H
