Title: Strange character on bottom of bowl
Post by: Justcake on Apr 25, 2016, 19:08:04

This is the bottom of my other bowl (it looks totally different than the previous one i posted). Like the other bowl, it looks pretty new so I don't think it's very valuable, I'm just curious what this mark means! I can't find an answer on the internet anywhere.

Thank you for your help.

Warmly,
Tara

Looks like it says Gaoshan, or tall mountain.

Thank you! Did you look at the bottom of my other bowl? I'd love to know what that one says as well. Thank you very much :)
