  1. You have a mind boggling number of marks here! I am trying to find the name of a pottery which uses as its mark a line of three pine trees, just simplified outlines with a single line for the trunk and a top in the shape of a spearhead. I can send photos if I have an email address. Underneath these 'pines' is the word JAPAN. They are very skilfully made pots. Any ideas?
