I thought this was pretty even though not exceptionally made, and it is along the lines of my other Amari bowls / plates I have found if anybody knows what it says on the stamp on the lid please feel free to share so I can get a better idea of the date of this thank you very much!
The problem with the pix is solved by taking the pix down one at a time and editing them ….. I just take a slight bit off the edge and then reload it …. and it should then be right way up. I edit all my photos before loading them and have no probs.
Thank you, it's been driving me crazy ????
Yay, properly uprighted, thanks again!
it reads HI so it is an abbreviated Hizen mark
Apostata, thanks for info, sorry so late in seeing this comment. What does the Hi mark indicate, in terms of age, and origin? , please and thank you!
FIRST THIS , BECAUSE THE BASICS ABOUT THE NAGAZARA, LEARN THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE BASICS , AND IT HARD
difference between chinese and japanese ( don,t discus the glazing ) i extrapolate heavely
1any plate with karakusa on the REVERSE !!!!! ( lotus scrolls or octopus scrolls etc are japanese 1
2 a inner circle inside the bottom ring +!! outside the bottom ring are japanese ( please remember this is the main determinant
all reverses with kilnspurs on the bottom are japanese
( computer is broke) example CATAWIKI - Bord - Porselein - Antique Japanese porcelain plate with birds - Japan - 19e eeuw surye rutten
1 technically it is not a karakusa , but to get an idea , your bowl is the real blue karakusa
3 kilnspurs ( the bubbles at the reverse bottom in Y shape)
good plate by the way
well you can forget everything no sweat , we have to start
but anyone who buy asian porcelain remember point 2
a inner circle inside the bottom ring +!! outside the bottom ring are japanese ( please remember this is the main determinant

Arita ware (Japanese: ???, Hepburn: Arita-yaki) is a broad term for Japanese porcelain made in the area around the town of Arita, in the former Hizen Province, northwestern Ky?sh? island. It is also known as Hizen ware (???, Hizen-yaki) after the wider area of the province. This was the area where the great majority of early Japanese porcelain, especially Japanese export porcelain, was made.
i got some awfull strange assumptions
today it is called coming from saga prefenture, notice there were an awfull lot of kilns, these type of marking from the HIZEn kiln started around early meijji
IMO there aren,t any reasons to date it to meiiji , the lining of the frame of the abbreviated HIZEN is out , and i strongly doubt the mark is painted, this is not the way to create a proper closed frame design of the mark HIZEN
i compared it to the taisho period transfer ware and it does,not make sense also
so actually i got the ludicrous opinion it is made quite recent from 1960 on
i hope i am wrong
Thanks Apostata, and I doubt you are wrong. I knew japanese was probable, just wasn't sure what the Hazen mark meant in context of this bowl. It is very vibrant in colors, I hadn't realized that the flow blue looking design was being produced that late into the 20th century, this is all a learning process for me, and I thank you once again for your most valuable information.
