Featured Need help to identify porcelain plate

Hallo everybody,
I have bought this decoration plate on a flee market. I cannot find anything about this decor. It is handpainted and on the back there is a mark that looks Japanese for me...
Can somebody help me, which country, name, age etc...

Thank you very much!

My first reaction was Japanese as well.

Hello and welcome to the board.

Others will come and go today, so be sure to check back later, if you don't get an immediate response.

 

Thank you, yes the mark look very Japanese. Nippon and Mount Fiji combi? But i cannot find the design/motife on the internet.....

 

Another vote for Japan, other that that I can't help. Maybe @Mat knows the mark and style.

 

The mark is "similar" to one shown on Gotheborg for a "distributor" named Suzuki Company active in about 1950, but examples of their import/export wares are much more traditionally Japanese designs.

 

Yes I noticed some similarity with the Suzuki Company mark, but thought it probably wasn't the right one.

 

I have seen that mark on Gotheborg as well, but items are different indeed....

 

You know, when I first saw the plate (without reading the OP or looking at the mark) I was expecting that it would be eastern European - Polish or something like that. The "holder" is strange too.

 

Same here.

 

Glad to know someone else was thinking the same.

 

i understand, but the mark is from Japan. That makes it so complicated....

 

Is "Japan" printed somewhere inside the mark?

 

I've had Japanese items wrapped that way.....I always thought of it as wicker......or basket material.

 

Hi, it is bamboo material...

 

I need someone to tell me how to tell wicker from rattan!

 

That is good information; thank you. Now to remember it....
