    Hi, everyone! I have this lovely little Asian tea cup I'm assuming is Japanese. It is very finely painted with gold in the decoration. Can anyone translate the mark for me and tell me how old it might be?

    I tried gotheborg.com but couldn't find a similar mark. The cup is about 2" tall.

    I appreciate any help!

    What would we do without khl, who is always very very helpful in this area!! In case you want to see similar markings, here is the Kutani page with them. Specifically scroll down and look a #506 and #909.
