Sadly it is lacking its lid but it is a good quality piece.
    Can anybody help with the elaborate mark ? Apart from Sei there are no typical Dai No Hon or Kutani.

    I asked a Japanese customer and he says the meaning is “painted by Itakura on a jar he bought from Hamada”

    Interesting, I can get purchased Hamada but usually sei zo is 'made by' rather than painted and I can't get Itakura from 枚攻 either. So difficult transcribing Japanese with Western tools.
