It actually appears to be late 19th Century Japanese Satsuma rather than from China. Some Satsuma style wares were made in China, but they'd need a physical examination to determine their true origins.

Re: josephnemer

Hello,

Your urns were produced in Japan during the 1930's and are NOT 19th Century in production. The gold is overlaid NOT inlaid.

They are unfortuneately not signed to the base by the artist, but usually only the better pieces were.

Value lies around the $200/$300 mark for the pair (dependant on condition).

 

Regards,

Jordan.
