Subject:Satsuma Signatures
Posted By: Christian Mon, Nov 11, 2019 IP: 146.115.217.121

I have a pair of Satsuma pieces that I'm having difficulty narrowing down the signature. Any help is appreciated. TIA!!!

Mark on the 2nd picture: Ryozan 良山, who was working for the Yabu Meizan studio.
Not Okamoto Ryozan (亮山), who worked for the Yasuda company.

Mark on the 1st picture:
- right column: Nippon 日本 To 陶 ?? (= Japan pottery ??). I could not recognize this last character.
- middle column: Satsuma 薩摩.
- left column: Baiko 梅光 no 之 Ga 画 (= Baiko painted this).

Perhaps someone else can recognize the Kanji character right below?

Regards,
Martin.

The last character on the right is the alternative form of 器 
日本陶器 - Nihon tōki - Japan pottery

Witht regards,
