I have a pair of statues from Marko Mfg that I would like to know a little more about before I give them away. I have researched the company and all I can find is that they were located in Bergenfeld, NJ and they were listed as importers. I don't know where they imported from. The last record I can find is 1970.
The pieces I have are both hand numbered 907, but don't know how many were originally made.
If anyone knows anything more about the company, age of these items or the approximate worth - I would appreciate it!
The vase looks imperial. I would like to know where it was made, when, the artists name and the period it was made. There is some japanese writing on the vase itself. (I wonder what it means) and there is a mark on the bottom of the vase which should reveal the period and the artist's name. I believe it was made in the Meiji period. The item has no chips, cracks, restorations or wear. The vase is in absolute near perfect condition. If you have additional information. That would be great. Anything at all. Thank you very much
