DH and I think it may be off an old radio or stereo console.
Great! It is sometimes difficult, especially when one knows nothing about Asian charcters, to discern whether something is Japanese, Chinese or...
Neat dish. No idea of age, but I would also lean towards Japanese, or might also be studio pottery. Just a thought.
Did you try to find it on replacements.com? I think that backstamp is turn of the 20th c.
No, that would be a maker’s mark. I dunno if .chinese or Japanese, but leaning toward Japanese. It is a prunus pattern — a very popular Asian...
I vote 20th c, too. That pale blue background colour/glaze seems to be typical of that era.
This is supposed to be Seto — does it match your mark? https://goo.gl/images/SJ7fbF
Did you check gotheborg.com for the mark? I’m thinking mid-20th c., 1950s/60s.
Looks like regular cloisonné to me, but that’s as much as I know.
Painting detail is much finer in the Christie’s one, so I suspect that OP’s is 20th c.
I need some help. I don’t think this shape is a cornucopia but derived some Greek horn-shaped vessel... Gad, my memory these days...:beaver:
Well, my first reaction is Japanese “imitation.” Somewhere in the 20th c and I think 2nd half.
Rattan furniture was popular in the 1980s, so not sure it’s technically mid-century...but then, I’m definitely mid-century vintage so, 1980s...
Remove the gold paint.
Although it looks like a RW flatback jug, that mark isn’t RW. If it was RW, then I would expect to see a printed mark like the one in SIS’s post.
Cool! I love seeing a good collection and this displays very nicely. I would think that the set with the card suits decoration was for ladies’...
I’m guessing early 20th c and the marks an honorific to an earlier dynasty but checking with gotheborg.com would tell, maybe.
The decoration is a prunus pattern which has been used in Chinese and other Asian wares for centuries. So, could be Southeast Asian manufacture....
That is a nice piece. Some “studio” pottery is really very fine.
