Subject:Help identifying this (bronze?) plate
Posted By: Jeff R. Tue, Nov 02, 2021 IP: 170.75.139.3
I have this 7 3/8" (bronze?) plate with two rabbits in relief. Does anyone know the country of origin and era it could have been made?

Subject:Help identifying Japanese antiques
Posted By: James Sat, Nov 06, 2021
Hi I saw your response to someone who needed help identifying a Japanese piece. I Collect Japanese antiques and need someone who can read japanese to help translate a few pieces that I have and can’t identify. I can pay you to identify them for me now and in the future whenever I need help with a piece. Is this something you could do? Thanks, James
