Satsuma

By mar121870, 2 May, 2008
Description

I have a Satsuma pottery serving dish.  I am only assuming that it is used as a serving piece because of the handle.  It is oblong shaped, however, it has leafing design around the rim.  The gold handle is shaped like ribbon with a small 4 pedel flower at the top.  This piece has a significant amount of gold outlining.  It has a lot of tiny tan colored raised dots.  In the middle of the piece there is a male and female peacock.  There is a two wheeled sidewalk vendor cart with two baskets of flowers.  This is such a beautiful and unique piece.  The porcelain under the glaze is cracked.  That usually means the piece is fairly old.  Im not sure what the markings mean on the bottom.  I was also not able to interperet the 4 chinese words in the stamp.  I have not had any luck finding anything like this piece.  Thank You for any insight anyone is able to give.
