Hi all,
   I'm trying to track down the maker on this beautiful little 3" diameter rose bowl.  The base is ground, but not polished.  Anyone recognize the signature?  Thanks for looking!!

hi Bob, I am Alisa on the Rosebowl list. this pic is too small to really make out/ get good detail on. If you have a larger pic and they won't let you upload it here could you just email it to me?

When you click on it it makes it bigger, does that help?

no it's still way too small to see enough detail to try and puzzle out what the mark might be.

If it's a relief signature, then doing a pencil rubbing on paper might show it up better. Then scan or photograph the rubbing and add it to the topic...
