Hi, I recently acquired this plate and was wondering if anyone could give some assistance in finding out more about it(origins, age, mark etc.)?

Many thanks in advance!

This is made in Arita, I can't read the bottom mark but the lines on the bottom is typical for Arita ware, I would say this is early 20th century from the looks of the foot rim.

The mark is difficult to read; in typical Japanese fashion the fancy writing is either abbreviated or placed in a way that there is no coherence. Unless someone 'knows' the mark already, it may be difficult to tell which name or shop this represents.
