Subject:Need help translating Japanese mark on bronze vase
Posted By: Roger Sat, May 01, 2021 IP: 2601:281:c202:b68a:6

Hi again,
Sorry for the multiple requests for help. I'd appreciate help on identifying the mark on the base of this large (very heavy) Japanese bronze urn / vase. Thanks much!

Hi, my father in law has a pair of bronze vases identical to yours and I’m curious if you have information about the history and potential value? His also have that same artist marking. Thank you so much!
