[QUOTE="Couch Potato Wannabe, post: 3876133, member: 14066"]After seeing the close-up, it could be either Chinese or Japanese as these exact characters appear in both. I found a reference which states, [SIZE=7]許特賣專[/SIZE] = something along the lines of [B]special permit for sale [/B] I've seen this appear on Japanese art products in all manner of medium from brass items, cloisonne and ceramics in many different cultural styles. I'm sorry, but I can't make out the blue coloured handwritten characters. Also, I should point out, I could be mistaken as to the characters in the small section also, these do seem to fit with other pieces I've seen.[/QUOTE]
