Usually I can figure these out and can manage to read the signature. I'm at a total loss here! HELP!!






Anyone know what the signature says? Is it Chinese or Japanese. Only one cup is signed. Raised design is done using the enamel/paint. Celedon green on the outside and a grayish white on the inside. Any help would be appreciated!

I just spent four hours at my granddaughter's ninth birthday party in the park. It took 1/2 to set up and almost 1 hour to tear down. What a mess! So, I'm exhausted.

Are the raised parts Imari-like? Pretty things; how large are they? Wish I could help you with the translation. Adele

You might check this site out. Scroll down below the descriptions and it will show you numerous marks. It looks Japanese to me, maybe Nippon. The flowers may be lotus blossoms or cherry blossom.

I've been on Gotheborg's site. Unfortunately, my membership lapsed so I can't participate on the board.

They are Imari-like, but I don't think that's their signature. More research. . .
