[QUOTE="mikeherbert, post: 271180, member: 5475"]My wife and I picked this up recently at auction (Paid a paltry sum for it) so not too fussed if things dont pan out too well.... I have done a bit of reading and I now know just enough to get me into trouble... Always the way. I would like to believe that we have a rare and quite early unmarked (Perhaps sold into the local market) Satsuma Vase. It is over 16 inches high and 8 inches wide. Its in pretty good condition for it's age (Although not quite sure how old it is). I am thinking that due to the decoration (Lack of people, animals and landscape) that it may date to Before the onset of exports to the western world. This would give it a date range of between early to mid Meiji (SP) period...... OR perhaps the tail end of the Tokugawa period.... Thoughts please! I posted a few pics but if you need more just let me know. There is also a shot of the only other one like it (For shape that is) thanks for looking.[/QUOTE]
