In which case we are back to Japanese and it says Imari. I'm no way near fluent and translating from badly formed marks isn't the easiest - that's my excuse anyway!</p><p><br /></p><p>Which again brings us too - it's a modern reproduction, no antique Imari ware was ever marked Imari. Imari was a Western name given to this style (as it was shipped from the port of Imari).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
