Kozangama- Maebata China Corporation, Tajimi City, Gifu, Japan.

This is minoyaki. I have seen some sites with pottery from Kozangama labeled as Imari or Aritayaki. 

Many have also identified the kiln as Kosan-yo which is another reading but not the one used by the Maebata company.  Others confuse Kozangama with Arita's  Kazangama. See my post on the difference between the two marks.

One of my favorite and a popular design is the "Seika Ryokusai Rinka" collection (shown above). This collection has many pieces.
