help to identify this mark, possibly japanese?

Hi, has anyone seen this mark before or have any idea on the potter?  The larger one is about 12" tall.

Can't really see the mark clearly in your image but the clay body and the shapes are not typically Japanese. That doesn't mean that they weren't made there though.

Just taken an imprint with blue tac it's much clearer will uptake later, kindests E

This of course is a mirror image, attached three to see if it helps,

I can't be sure but the mark could well be Japanese but it isn't going to help me with an identification. Are you more certain that it is a Japanese mark, eshearm, after seeing your impression?

Hi studio-pots, I am and I have taken a pic through my large eye piece and it looks japanese, like Naomi said it looks so Danish which is what was confusing me! May be a japanese potter working in Denmark?! They are fab though and look great together, I think this may remain one of those many pot mysteries, thanks guys x

I still cant see  could you take a closer pic and maybe ink it up for definition?

Will up load closer pic tomorrow thanks

As promised, think this is the best i can do

It looks like a Japanese mark, as you say - I'll keep my eyes open but don't hold your breath.

Cheers studio pots, they are sat on my kitchen dresser and not going anywhere! X

Hi, this is confirmed asa japanese mark that reads "seizan" not greatly helpful as a common word in japan, but expert thought it meant the potter, but as yet no link with a studio potter with this sign!

I have just checked and the same kanji characters also translate as the Japanese family name Nishiyama so that might be another option.

well there you go! thanks studio-pots another avenue! x
