    Hoping for some information on this Japanese or Chinese Plate. I took pics of the characters from both directions since I'm not sure what is the top or bottom. Is this a Phoenix?

      You can call it a 'Phoenix' or Japanese Flying Turkey. I'm sure apostata will be along to tell you all about it soon.

      The mark says: Hakuundo ??? Shubei ?? Sei ? -
      Translation: White Cloud Hall (or trading shop), made by Shubei.
      It's a mark of Kato Shubei 2nd (1848-1903)

      made around 1900

      ho-o bird also called a flying turkey probably

      waki best regards

      Thanks to both apostata and dav2no1 for their knowledge. This is going in my display cabinet to treasure for another 100 years.
