    I have no idea what it is, a brush pot? It measures 7-1/2"H x 3"W. Is not porcelain but more clay or stoneware. Any help on the translation would be greatly appreciated. Pictures are going from right to left so lettering is also right to left. bw1.jpg bw1.jpg bw2.jpg bw1.jpg bw2.jpg bw2.jpg bw3.jpg bw4.jpg

    It is a brush pot, to stand brushes in. A brush washer is more shallow.
    Hopefully someone will be along to help with the translation, although I think they are away somewhere, because I haven't had any translation of the seals on my recently posted snuff bottle yet.

    Still no luck, maybe you can help me with this one, is it a cup or something else? Any expressed thoughts on it would be greatly appreciated. It measures 2-7/8"H x 2" W, foot measures 1-1/4". Has indentions on the inside from the finger of the maker. also has a mark or signature. cup3.jpg cup3.jpg cup6.jpg cup12.jpg

    Nice, Mario. Why don't you make a new thread for it? Knowledgeable people who are not interested in translation could miss it.

    Your 2nd item looks like modern studio pottery. It might just be a juice tumbler, maybe one that went along with a little pitcher.
