The mark reads: Dai 大 Nippon 日本 Satsuma 薩摩 Shozan 章山.
This same Shozan name is also found as a painter name (Shozan Ga) on Hododa items. Hododa was a manufacturer / exporter in Yokohama, who bought blanks and let these paint by others around 1900.
I have no information available about this Shozan.
Regards,
Martin.
