Subject:Tetsubin signature identification
Posted By: DigitalSparks Thu, Nov 17, 2022 IP: 47.211.81.122

I was curious if anyone could identify this maker mark on the lid of this tetsubin.

I have tried a few translation programs with no luck. Thanks to anyone in advance for taking a look.

龍文堂造 Ryūbundō -zō Made by Ryūbundō
The upper part of the "ryū" character is so faint that it cannot be seen from this angle.

Ryubundō was a famous Meiji era iron kettle maker.

With regards,
