And another!
I bought this at the same shop where I found the Italian mid century lamp.
This was standing on a shelf just inside the door.
Caught my eye, I picked it up, put it back down, and walked around.
After making the loop of the shop I returned to examine it more closely.
It's gorgeous, beautifully made, detailed, with an interesting and very old repair,( minor, when it's such a beautiful piece ).
So, it's mine!
Now, do you suppose it's Chinese?
It's very fine, ( it even has miniscule teeth!), a lovely shape, and the hand painting is gorgeous.
Thanks for giving it a look,
best to all,
Tony.
Thanks for the looks and loves, blunder and agh,
much appreciated!
very very beautiful!!!!!
Hello Jim,

so appreciated!,
Tony.
And thank you for the kind comment, Sean!!

Hi guys.
Check out Gotheborg mark 504 .... FUKU.
I think that's the top mark.
ARITA .... IMARI?
Just love this and the fact that it's Japanese makes it even better ! Great find :)
Hi JW .... Go to the Arita section ... Go past A.A. van tine & Co, then Aerozon, then you have a series of Arita. It is the fifth one down.
Arita - Aoki Kyodai-Shokai
Arita - Imitating Chinese Chenghua mark
Arita - Imitating Chinese Ming dynasty Chenghua mark
Arita - Fuki Choshun - Wealth and Everlasting Spring
And then
Arita - Fuku
Fu ku, common on Arita porcelain during the Edo period (1603-1867).
Hello Kevin and Jim,
Just getting online again and excited by the new posts, Thank You both for taking the time and providing all of this wonderful information. I'll try to follow your footsteps and see what it is your talking about, hopefully I can find something too!
You're both very kind, I appreciate it greatly,
Tony.
Thanks for the loves, racer, katherine, mike, Trey, surfdub, and David,
the love and kind comments are very welcome!
Dear Jim and Kevin,
I see what you are making reference to, and I agree with you both. One mark, the Arita FUKU mark, looks spot on. I'll keep looking, but big Thanks to you both!!!
Sorry about that typo of the 584, Jim.
So it seems FUKU wa used at Arita and Kutani.
Having a look round at the types of wares of both .... the Kutani Ducks might be the right direction to head in, I think.
The marks might be FUKU TA ZO ... ( embedded KU TA )?
