Thanks for another informative website. Where else could I get that type of information written in such an ideal way? I have a project that I'm just now working on, and I've been on the look out for such information.

Please if you have time--Which blue and white has a brown engraved swirl on the foot
ReplyDeleteI don't know right off.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU for SO much helpful information to expand my knowledge of Japanese ceramics. I am wondering if you have some idea when Japanese ceramics intended for giftware started to be stamped in red Japanese characters and English saying "FOR DECORATIVE USE ONLY NOT FOR FOOD USE"? I appreciate your sharing and expect to be immersed in your site for quite some time today :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm not aware of those markings on Japanese ware. I have seen a lot of Chinese ware with those markings, as well as Japanese porcelain decorated in Hong Kong.
