    It might go this way.?

    It does go that way INH. Probably Chinese and could very well be an "honorific" mark - a mark from a previous emperor's reign that is used long after the reign was over. The Chinese do that a lot.

    Starting upper right, "Da" (the great) and "Ming" below that. Got those from Chinese porcelain marks, so the rest is a mystery to me.

    These people have mentioned in the Translation volunteer thread that they may be able to help with Chinese.
