Stoutcat Posted February 27, 2015 at 08:22 PM Report Posted February 27, 2015 at 08:22 PM Trying to find out what the marks on the bottom of this beautiful charger or low bowl mean. I don't even know if they're Chinese, but thought you all might be able to at least point me in the right direction. Many thanks! Quote
889 Posted February 27, 2015 at 09:08 PM Report Posted February 27, 2015 at 09:08 PM The mark is 愛陶, read Aitao in Chinese and probably read Aitō in Japanese. There are kilns with this name in both Japan and China, but I believe this is the mark used by the Japanese kiln. Of course, it's also possible the Japanese kiln has moved production to China, I don't know. Search "Love Ceramics," though whether this is the same company that made your piece, I don't know either.
