[QUOTE="georgeingraham, post: 3811873, member: 6261"]I have this vase in hand now so wanted to come back and share it. Every website that mentions Poo ware or Poo You-she have copy and pasted the information from Jan-Erik [URL='http://gotheborg.com/marks/sumida.shtml'][COLOR=#0000ff]at the Gotheborg website[/COLOR][/URL] Have not found any scholarly reference about Poo ware or Poo You-shi. Neither are either mentioned in any of my Shiwan books. I do believe pieces like these were influenced by Sumida and Banko pottery, but the Shiwan potter and Poo ware is a bit of a mystery. Don't know what the odds are that I stumbled onto a second similar vase, but even far greater are the odds that all three of these from different sellers share the same fish shaped potters mark. So of course they are all from the same family Shiwan kiln. For now it feels like referencing this particular Shiwan potter or Poo ware is speculative with no supporting written references or known pieces by him. I thought that maybe this information could have been orally passed on to Jan-Erik while he visited the Shiwan kilns in 2005. So have sent him a message asking, waiting to hear back. Maybe some day I will discover which kiln this potters mark is from. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/WdKtS7U.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/FVpjQ9a.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
