Re: Bamboo brush pot |
Posted By: Bill H Posted Date: Dec 27, 2011 (12:30 AM) |
Message The two characters on the right read down as 'Lao Tong'. 'Lao' means 'old', and 'Tong' is a Chinese name used for several trees, including the paulownia, the tung (source of oil) and the phoenix trees. I would guess this to be either the artisan's nickname or a studio name. The other squared off marking looks like it might be meant to resemble a seal, but I can't make it out. Best regards, Bill H.
