Meiji Period Japanese Porcelain Kyoto Satsuma Moriage / 明治時代、日本の磁器京都さつま

I found another Meiji period Japanese porcelain Kyoto Satsuma moriage marked さつま.   This piece nearly matches another I have in my collection, posted here.  Circa 1868 - 1890.

Kyoto Satsuma is the common name for Satsuma style porcelain which were predominately made in Awata, Kyoto, Yokohama and Tokyo during the Meiji period.  Moriage is the style of decoration using raised enamel.

This is one of my earliest finds from when I first began collecting Asian porcelain, and after researching it for the past several days, I have finally identified it as a Meiji period Japanese porcelain, Kyoto Satsuma Moriage.  明治時代京都さつま. circa approx. 1868 - 1890  Unfortunately when I was researching this Japanese porcelain ware and asking around for help in identifying it, I had the Satsuma marking サつまupside down, which prolonged the search for information and made if more difficult than necessary..

The term Kyoto Satsuma does not mean it was necessarily made in Kyoto and is a common name term used for the Satsuma marked "Satsuma style" wares that were made and decorated in Awata, Kyoto, & Yokohama, etc.  

Moriage is the common name for this style of decor with raised enamel painting.
