<p>[QUOTE="Ce BCA, post: 4490222, member: 18716"]I've not seen this before, but there is something up with it. It does say Kutani on the base, but it looks like it is made of pottery - Kutani is always porcelain. It also has the Shimazu crest on the body, the symbol for Satsuma pottery made in the Kagoshima region, which certainly isn't Kutani. So, I think it must be some sort of reproduction or an outside chance it is some crazy mixed up item from post war Japan when they were recovering from WW2.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
