<p>[QUOTE="vintagefox, post: 367972, member: 7693"]I don't know much about Japanese potteries, but I can read Japanese. The mark says "Moriyama", and it is definitely a Japanese name. I checked Japanese google and found expired listings of Meiji period (1868 - 1912) Satsuma pieces made by Moriyama. Since Japanese pottery studios are often passed over generations, Moriyama may not mean one artist. I wish I could compare your vase to those listings, but no photo was available.</p><p><br /></p><p>The shape of the vase is not traditional Japanese style. From Meiji period to mid century, many Western style potteries, such as this one, were made for export purpose. I think this is one of them. Definitely not from 80's.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
