<p>[QUOTE=&quot;blooey, post: 3290017, member: 12007&quot;]Well when I first saw this I must say I thought it was nicely done but not what I would necessarily place in the 19thc. It seems a bit more &#039;dressy&#039; than the usual pieces we see -plus the fact that there are others that bear a very close resemblance and are similarly signed suggests that we are looking at the production of a particular Japanese maker, or workshop - no doubt a translation of the mark would tell us more. </p><p>Even though this is &quot;Imari&quot;, the design&nbsp; elements of the reserves featuring Kutani-like landscapes etc and the rather non-typical elements and coloration of the reverse decor put it outside of what I would describe as a typical Meiji Imari charger.</p><p>I think this is more likely a bit later, maybe Taisho period, but again, a reading of the maker&#039;s mark would probably tell us the whole story.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
