Subject:Request help in identifying mark on Satsuma Vase
Posted By: Roger Thu, May 07, 2020 IP: 2601:281:c202:b68a:a
Hi All,
Request your help in identifying the mark on this wonderful small Satsuma 1000 flower design vase. I could not find this on the Gotheborg website. I'd also be interested in your thoughts on age as well. Thank you in advance!

It reads,
日光　-　Nikkō
It is a porcelain shop name.
In 1885, Nikkō　Shōten 日光商店 (Nikkō Store or Nikkō　Porcelain Store - English logo) was opened in
Yokohama by Katō　Kōsaburō 加藤湖三郎. Dealt in Satsuma, Kaga, Hirado, Imari, Bako etc. wares for export.

With regards,
I.Nagy
