[QUOTE="georgeingraham, post: 2420400, member: 6261"]I apologize for not sharing pics of the item. The auction pics are just so darn crappy, I really dislike not having good pics before sharing.. I should have waited until in hand before asking questions, but will share when it arrives. My hunch is also pottery makers mark Couch Potato. Found the site you referenced [URL]https://chano-yu.com/famous-japanese-potters-and-marks/[/URL] It has also been suggested that a direct translation could be direct "military command" in Chinese. Other possibilities include, 信=letter, confidence, trust 令=make, to order, to command, 信令=Signaling, and for what it is worth translates to Japanese=shigunaringu=シグナリング After a little more research for the piece, it does look to be Japanese rather than Chinese. Thanks for all the feedback guys and gals.. Next time I will not jump the gun and wait until in hand before posting questions.[/QUOTE]
