    Can anyone tell me what these marks read? I posted somewhere else and they said they are not Japanese. Thanks!

    I don't know what it says.
    But I like it.

    Possibly Korean. That is just a guess.

    I posted this several days ago on the Asian Arts Forum and still no responses. Anyone know any other places to seek help? Also tried here and FB.

    One mark reads 平貴 Pinggui, probably a Chinese given name here.

    The other reads 原创 "original creation."

    pinggui is some sort of "Pluralized" form of Penguin?

    It is a production control marking from a shop or factory. It stands for "expensive" and "original creation" / "original design".
