Heavy, well rendered estate piece. 10 1/2" Long x 8" Tall. The underside of one foot has an incised mark, which looks like Asian Characters-Japanese perhaps? Any ideas who may have made this piece?

To my eye the picture of the mark need to be turned around 180 degrees.
Okay, thanks very much! I will turn it around.
Hi, the shape reminds me of a German artist called Schäffenacker. A friend of mine has a similar piece and it's by this artist. His vases are often not signed though.
Bye
Thank you. Yes, I do see the similarities in Schaffenacker's use of volcanic glaze. Appreciate your comment very much!
