Mid-sized earthenware bowl from Japan. The inside and rim are glazed in grey, the rest is unglazed. Around the rim are two grooves and underneath this are repeated diagonal stamps, one of which is repeated on the base. The other mark is in a kidney shaped outline. I've tried to research it but Japanese pottery is a labrynthine subject; the only help we can offer is that it was probably obtained by my partner's parents while living in Japan in the early 1990s. They also lived there in the early 60s but this looks to be of a later design. They also visited Mashiko a lot but this probably isn't from there!
