Subject:Jardiniere Mirror Writing Translation Request
Posted By: Steve Gridley Wed, Jun 09, 2021 IP: 96.244.150.12
I acquired this repoussé jardiniere that looks like someone soldered in a mirror as a new bottom. I'm not sure whether the piece is Chinese or Japanese. I would also like a translation of the writing on the mirror. Thank you.

Maker of the mirror;
藤原光永　-　Fujiwara Mitsunaga
Late 19 c. (Meiji period)
After this, it can be assumed that the jardiniere itself is Japanese.

With regards,
I.Nagy
