Hello,
I believe this is an Japanese Arita bowl. It also has a cover. Could I get a time frame, based on the mark? I have seen several marks like this...but this one is lined in gold. I thought that might help date the bowl. Thanks.
The Mark is abbreviated Hizen, Hizen is a town in Arita, what is shown on your bowl is" Hi" , it would more than likely date to the Meiji period. I would need to see the decoration on the bowl to tell if it is Meiji or a later item.
Stan, thank you. I have attached another picture. Sheila
Thanks sheila for the additional photo's, In my opinion I would date this to the late Meiji period, or possibly later.
Thanks
