<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Francisco G Kempton, post: 4341480, member: 22714&quot;]Here is a link for that discusses fake Nippon marks. It suggests one way of knowing if a backmark is fake is the size, if it greater than 1/4 inch and closer to a 1/2 inch then the mark is fake; </p><p><br /></p><p>Also your mark is very similar to the fake mark in the website i linked below;</p><p><br /></p><p>this fake mark</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]358737[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://myriadtradingco.wordpress.com/2010/05/27/nippon-backstamps-and-known-dates-of-manufacture/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://myriadtradingco.wordpress.com/2010/05/27/nippon-backstamps-and-known-dates-of-manufacture/" rel="nofollow">https://myriadtradingco.wordpress.com/2010/05/27/nippon-backstamps-and-known-dates-of-manufacture/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]358736[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>However the best way to know if something is fake is the poor quality of the item. With your vase the porcleain looks modern and of very poor quality, Nippon and Noritake have a very illustrious porcelain, that is has a white creamy lustre due to the very high bone density used in its production, when you handle a real Noritake you will notice the characteristic of the porcelain and it is quite hard to fake.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tyr get your hands on a 1920&#039;s Nortiake and examine the porcelain and you will see the shimmering lustrious white, it is almost trademark. The porcelain is very fine indeed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
