Subject:enamel floral butterfly plate
Posted By: david Sat, May 06, 2017 IP: 2607:fea8:1d5f:fe45:

Hello, Can anyone identify the marks on this wonderful enamel floral butterfly plate? NOTE: I attempted to capture the best photo I could of the impressed mark! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! David.

David,

The impressed mark is Yamatoku in Katakana characters, zie my picture below.
I don't know what the red seal means, it's often seen together with this impressed mark.
More about Yamatoku can be found at this site:
