Hello again, after such sucess with my last item on this board I have one other item I need help with please.
I have this oval pot/jardineire/plant holder/thingy that has stumped me. I haven't been able to find out anything about the mark on the base, where it may be from or how old. I must say it's not the prettiest thing I have seen but I have kept it until I could find out who made it. ?Continental, Dutch?, badly made Oriental? Anyone have an idea about the mark - it looks Chinese but I have no idea? Thanks for looking, I'm sure someone here will know and finally put me out of my misery.
Cheers
Rebecca

it looks like its japanese to me, the blue glaze on the clothing and other details in the scene are a giveaway. i cant ID the mark, perhaps Gotheborg Japanese Porcelain Marks is a good site to trawl through to find it.:-)
