    Can anyone recommend accurate & knowledgeable sites for the translation of chops/signatures on Japanese & Chinese antiques and modern art,craft,ceramics,etc.?
    Fee-base sites are fine as long as they are accurate re artist,historical period,origin location.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    @wlwhittier recently recommended this free Asian Arts Forum site to me: https://asianart.com/phpforum/index.php
    to help with a Japanese pottery piece I posted here before. He has had good luck with it. I posted there about a month ago. Have not yet gotten help with my piece, but notice that the items that are not pottery and ceramic seem to currently be getting more looks and some replies.

    There is another fee-based one called Dictionary of Japanese Potters. https://japanese-ceramics.com/
    Haven't tried it yet. (My piece is pottery, not porcelain, so Gotheborg won't help.)

    Thanks Figtree-I posted an item on Asian Arts Forum about a year ago and as of today haven't heard a squeak.Some of the free sites seem quite hit & miss-makes sense,it's gratis ! Will check out the Japanese Ceramics site-thanks.
