    Have 2 pieces of porcelain I need some help with.

    1. Signed Fukagawa vase, i am trying to decipher the writing on the front of the vase.


    2. Chinese pottery planter, measures 6" tall and is 4 1/2" wide. Was wondering if anyone could decipher the writing or give me any idea of the age.

    It looks like someone tried to make the second one into a lamp.

    The top one is inscribed 绿峯 “Green Peak." The seal is the character 绿 for "green."

    The bottom one is inscribed 福祿壽, a standard wish for good fortune, prosperity and longevity.

    The second one was made for a plant. I'm guessing the vase is 1980s or later.
