This is another I have, approx. 15cm high. I believed it is a Shiwan but was told that the mark is Arita.
I did a little research but haven't been able to find similar pieces for comparison.
Hi Marie, I could not find the mark in my books, lets wait and see if someone can recognize the mark, however the bottom is a 20th century bottom 2nd half of the 20th century in my view, could be later.
Hi Stan, I have just found the mark on one of the research sites. Arita-Hizen. Just not sure if original or copy. The bronze, gold colours in the piece are raku metallic like. They dont really show up in pic.
Thanks Marie, I thought the one mark on the left was a Hizen mark, but the ones showing in my book were cursive and did not quite look the same, thanks again for the update.
