Mark Deciphering
- The Characters: Inside the gold rectangular border, the stylized handwritten kanji reads 九谷 (Kutani).
- The Style: The signature is painted in gold over a dark rectangular background. This specific format—a small gold rectangular box containing the two-character Kutani mark—is a traditional artist signature frequently used by Japanese workshops during the late Meiji period (late 19th to early 20th century) and carried forward into mid-20th century showpieces
