Identify Beautiful Oriental Asian Porcelain Mark - Looks like a 'Y'





Identify Beautiful Oriental Asian Porcelain Mark - Looks like a 'Y':- I bought three Japanese plates but I can't identify the mark. There is a G1112 B, C & D engraved in Gold (I am missing the G1112 A) and what seems to be a letter "Y"in the top plus another stamp in the middle.
I'd like to find out the real origin and Circa of this beautiful asian porcelain.

Can anyone please help me?

Thank you!

Hi Guys

Peter (admin) here. I have really been scouting around for info on this Y mark.

Normally, you can pick up many identifications of oriental ware marks from Gotheborg.com. I have scanned their pages looking for this mark but come up blank.

*****UPDATE*****
I have since found out who this mark is attributed to - read my next entry below
*****END UPDATE*****

Recently I referred a couple of mystery oriental marks to a company specialising in valuing and identifying oriental marks and they came back with great identifications. Not this one unfortunately.

For people needing professional appraisals, valuations and identifications go to my page here:-

It's there if you need it.

Best regards

'Y' mark on oriental china wares
by: Peter (admin)

I recently found this mark attributed to a Japanese maker called "Sadek". Apparently this mark was an attempt to impersonate a 19th century mark of Sitzendorf, Germany under the 'Gebrüder Voigt' era...

see
www.porcelainmarksandmore.com

There seems to be a lot of nice looking wares around by Andrea of Sadek on ebay (click on this link, and on the page that comes up near the top there is a convenient and fast link which takes you straight to a deep level ebay search page) and elsewhere.
Japanese Porcelain Mark

Hello... there are a few ways to read the Japanese Kanji characters, one interpretation is:

九 = nine

谷 = valley


Bought at estate sale
by: D. Hoffkins

I bought a pair of Asian figurines at an estate sale. They have a "33/165" on the back. They seem to be a poured material as I see where there were air bubbles . The matrerial seems soft as I can scratch it. They are two Asian women with some sort of round plate or instrument in their hands.
Can anybody give
e some insight?
