Subject:Help ID Porcelain Mark
Posted By: Chris Thu, Sep 12, 2019 IP: 75.146.247.209

Is this satsuma? The red background is throwing me off. Is anyone familiar with the signature? Thanks in advance for any insights!!

The mark reads: Koka-en 紅華園 Zo 造 = Made in Koka garden (or park). Satsuma ware 1880-1900.
Koka can be translated as: crimson flower.
It's a mark of Ryokuzan, see my picture.
In English that mark reads as: Satsuma ware made by Ryokuzan in Koka garden.
Regards,
Martin.
