Hello i hope that someone may please help me identify my two boxes i recently found.i have been trying for weeks to identify the markings to no avail.
One is a dragon and pearl and thousand chrysanthemum 3 drawer 1.8kg kodansu 16.5cm x 16.5cm x 9cm with cedar drawer, gilt washing, original pulls etc. It has a diamond within an ovular lozenge and what i think is the "En" kanji?
The other is a dragon and pearly and two character lidded 2 drawer hinged lid 786g 11 x 8 x 6cm with.original silk linings and cedar drawer with a two character mark? The drawer also has a diamond mark on the lock step inside which contains a long horizontal bar with two short cross bars?
