Any help I could get related to sites to visit to get further information on this plate would be greatly appreciated.

I have this displayed on an ornate, brass plate stand in front of a small fireplace and it's quite the conversation piece.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

The mark would be moved 90 degrees to the left.

A Kinkozan family mark.
"The Kinkozan family of potters were active from 1645 until 1927 after which the factory closed. The background is that approximately around 1875 Kobayashi Sobei (1824-84) (artist name Kinkozan IV) started to export his products together with the Kyoto manufacturer Taizan VIII. The market was in particular America. Their main production period were approximately between 1875-1927 under the leadership of Kinkozan V (1868-1927). Technically specking Kinkozan family wares are not a true 'Satsuma' but should be classified as Awata Kyo-yaki."
