You are invited to come along with me as I learn about Japanese ceramics. I will share what I learn about the kilns, history, terminology, potters, decorators, styles, and marks. This is a work in progress. ** NOTICE: I NO LONGER ANSWER QUERIES ON PERSONAL PIECES. I DO NOT GIVE VALUATIONS.

What is the year of the stamp in upper right corner
ReplyDeleteGenerally speaking wares marks with Nippon would be 1891-September 1921 when the law requiring Japan/Made in Japan was required for exporting to the USA. This mark would be closer to the 1921 time frame.
