Beautiful bowl, Is it Chinese?

by Kathy Clark
(Hartselle, Alabama)

I at first thought this gorgeous bowl was Japanese, but seeing some of your marks I thought maybe I was wrong. Do you know anything about this bowl?

 Japanese bowl
by: peter

Kathy,
It IS Japanese.
The mark is in Kanji (Chinese characters), but the Japanese language uses some 2000 of these together with Japanese syllables.
The mark says "Kozan kiln".
