Featured chinese famille verte ? brush pot age

something else i picked up yesterday from a charity shop

unsure of age, thinking 1930s for some reason

its got more of a cream colouring rather than white

dont think its old old, or new new

somewhere in the middle ?

5 inches

any thoughts appreciated

 

Just thought could be Japanese actually

 

if a brush pot....looks unused...........pretty though!

 

Not so new Charlie, I'd have picked it up too. Good score, the paintwork is very nice. Keep your pens and pencils in it!

 

It is really lovely, charlie.

That, or slightly later.

 

Thanks for the info guys

 

This is Awata ware, early 20th c, the signature is "Kinkozan made".

 

@Any Jewelry or @Mat , is this Japanese? Or Chinese?

How can we most easily tell?

 

Thanks mat, great stuff

 

Pretty sure it's Japanese anti

 

From being told about 4 times before from like items !!

Brain goldfish

 

I want one!

 

Mat's id is Japanese. And if Mat says it is Japanese, it is Japanese.

 

And me, and me.

 

Another thing is that Japanese are very fond of little birds speeding through the scene as if they never even noticed the artist. Love that.

 

Thank you, AJ, this is the sort of tip I need!

 

While I've been falling asleep at night to audio books

My goldfish seems to have been listening

 

IF you put ball point pens in it....careful....the ink can really ruin stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR Goldfish is ADORABLE!!
