<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 48095, member: 44&quot;]I don&#039;t know anymore about these marks then what&#039;s on the Gotheborg.com and the gbouvier.com sites. There is a chance these marks are of an individual decorator and not of a factory?? Taking your 1st close-up pic of the marks, the bottom mark/character looks like the Ga mark for painted.</p><p><font size="5">&nbsp; 画 </font>- Ga (painted)</p><p><br /></p><p>Look under the 2nd section, &quot;2) Meiji period 1869-1912&quot;, about the 7th short paragraph down in that section for the &quot;Ga&quot; character.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_rules.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_rules.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_rules.php</a></p><p><br /></p><p>On the same site you might look through the following pages. I skimmed through them not seeing yours, but then I did it quickly:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_list_menu.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_list_menu.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_list_menu.php</a></p><p><a href="http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_marking.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_marking.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.gbouvier.com/Seal/seal_marking.php</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not a member soooo can&#039;t get into the site&#039;s extensive database of markings. Hopefully one of oriental guru&#039;s will come along with help in a day or so.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
