I'm not certain what this mark is, but the work looked like something from the "-iemon" family, and I couldn't find the exact mark. Any information appreciated. I called it Kakiemon as I had to call it something I could find in my Pictures folder! I am assuming this is 20th century. K.

Looks fairly new, judging by the gloss.
The mark is 日峰 which with person's names can be read "Himine".
There may be an alternative reading as well (Harumine) which seems to be a place name.
(As always with Japanese names it is complicated, there is the possibility of two or more readings with the same characters; depends on the specific person or place.)

Let's see what Stan says.

BTW, the little I know about Kakiemon this is unlikely from this kiln.  If you do a Google image search for Kakiemon using this Japanese 柿衛門 you will see that the original style of this kiln is completely different.

Thanks, Stan. I assumed it was 20th century and I didn't remember what Kakiemon looked like. But I know I have seen this border before, something about it is familiar to me. K>
