I have been trying o identify this bowl !' i was told ' when a bought it some 25 years or so ago that it was Chinese ' that it was ' circa 1840 ! i have attached a photograph of the mark that is on the underside of the bowl ! any help would be appreciated '
Hello, Apparently the person who told you that was himself/herself not sure... This is a Kutani mark. Kutani is a well known Japanese kiln. Please look for someone specialized on Japanese porcelain and show them pictures of the item. I'm afraid I cannot help with the age of Japanese porcelain.
