[QUOTE="Francisco G Kempton, post: 4395982, member: 22714"]This vase might best be descibed as Kyoto Satsuma, but was possibly made or decorated and exported by Maruni & Co in Kobe Japan.

[ATTACH=full]370924[/ATTACH] As Ce Bca has pointed out there is a hyrbid of Kutani and Satsuma or a japanese Kutani Porcelain. Another manufactuer of white porcelain satsuma was Kyokuzan which ironically also used the Kutani and Satsuma mark together. This is early 20th century. Moriage has been around since the late 19th century but I am not aware it was around as far back as 1851. Kyokuzan [ATTACH=full]370927[/ATTACH] The Great Exhibition at Crystal palace in London was in 1851 and was never run again. [ATTACH=full]370928[/ATTACH] Your Great Grandmother who sadly died in 1920 at the age of 50 would have been too young to purchase this vase at the Great Exhibition. So I think you grandparents might have exaggerated or more likley were being humourous as the vase is not especially of any great quality. The darker red colour and the manner the moriage is applied would be more 20th century. It cannot be 1851 as Kyoto Satsuma Moriage was not manufactured in this style in 1851.
