    Any help is very much appreciated I have tried images search and the website for marks and found nothing It looks like it was hand painted or drawn as I do not see the normal dots from transfers Is this Chinese, Japanese, or? I think it is newer A64BF1AC-1B75-4A0B-9AF7-B6A7EC760940_1_201_a.jpeg FA3BCACC-CBB7-4398-BD74-54316382D76D_1_201_a.jpeg 5DA19A8F-219B-4686-A155-D0E1EFF92AC4_1_201_a.jpeg 21652989-4045-48FC-9AD9-52BFF2E8BCB8_1_201_a.jpeg

    Yes it does appear to be handpainted, although not terribly old, as you mentioned.

    The two characters on the left say Kutani. Maybe we can find the rest....

    Wanli, Ming dynasty China.
    The vase was made in Japan. Not old
