hello ... I am exhausted from searching the internet & books for the makers to this mark and was hoping someone could help me out. I'd sure appreciate any help. There are some initials on the left of the shield.

we need to see pictures of the whole piece, but at first glance the mark looks looks like a spurious mark found on Chinese reproductions. I hope I'm wrong.

Thanks for answering .. it's a square bowl thing .. oh well it's probably a reproduction because I can't find that mark anywhere

I haven't seen one of these before but I still get the same impression. The holes are just decorative, there isn't any real practical purpose for them.

thanks for helping .. I'm not going to concern myself with it anymore .. I'm sure it's faked
