    It’s not really important now as this bowl arrived damaged but I wonder if it is Gouda or a Japanese copy. I’ve re-glued it but hardly worth selling now unless it’s old Regina Gouda and of interest to a collector.

    Any thoughts?

    Given the base doesn't really look Japanese I'd had gone with Gouda

    I am no expert on 'Gouds plateel', as we Dutch call it, but that crackle glaze doesn't look Gouda to me.

    Can't say I remember ever handling a piece of Zenith Gouda-like so don't know what it is like in person or on the base. I think I only have a couple PZH pieces while the Regina I've had was just blue and white delftware. Just as a general observation, the Dutch seem to reallllllly like to label their pots. I'd guess Japanese but that's just a guess.

    Don't know if if you've looked through the Gouda-design site but they have a ton of info. Here is a page with some Japanese pieces.

    I do have Ritvo's The World of Gouda Pottery book though as many other books, they don't show bottoms much.

    Here is what they have for a Regina fan type pattern and a PZH fan pattern.

    Lastly an ESKAF kind of similar piece though it also is signed.
