Unknown Japanese(?) cup.

by Scott
(Mesa, AZ)

I received this cup from my grandmother some time ago. She liked to travel but unfortunately I don't know where she picked it up. I have been unable to identify the mark on the bottom. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you..

Hi Scott,

I'm afraid we cannot help with Japanese porcelain. The only I can tell you is that the mark says "Shimagawa", probably the name of a person or shop.
I would try asianart.com as they have people specialized on Japanese ceramics.
