    Hello world's smartest antique dealers,

    I have a set of three tea cups with a mark on the bottom. I did my best to identify it. II'm assuming that this is late 20th century and is just the artist's name? I ran it through google translator 10 time and and it came back with 10 answers!

    Any help is always appreciated!

    Maybe it would help if one of our Asian pottery "experts" were to see this.

    The right column might read Arita (有田) which would then be the place of production. I cannot help with the name of the maker.
