Subject:Can Anyone Read Marks On Finely Decorated Japanese Vase
Posted By: Gary Mon, Jul 15, 2024 IP: 86.147.162.164

This little vase is 7.5 inches high by 4.5 inches wide, it's extremely fine painted thats hard to show in my photo's, my thoughts where that it could be Japanese Satsuma but when tapped it sounds like porcelain and it's lighter weight not like the normal Satsuma, can anyone read the marks on the base? MANY THANKS

The mark reads: Dai Nippon 大日本 (Great Japan) Hododa 保土田 Seizo 製造 (Manufactured by Hododa).
Hododa made Satsuma ware, the white color and crackling is typical Satsuma earthenware.
Date: around 1900.
Regards,
Martin.
