Had jar for over 25 years. Don't remember where I picked up. Any help or suggestions how to price would be appreciated. Thank you.

Looks to have been produced in the 60's.   Not by any particularly famous company.

Cannot see them too well.   Any chance of a close up?

Well, it is not a Japanese character.   Could be a stylized Mt. Fuji, but cannot say for sure.  It is going to be hard to pin this down much further as there were literally hundreds of small porcelain factories just after the Occupation ended and there has not been much research on them and not much history of them remains...    Sorry...

Thanks for your response! It is a beautiful jar & I will list it soon. It's only as valuable to someone who collects or catches some ones eye I guess. Thanks again! Terrik24

You are welcome.   The handle appears to be in excellent condition which is unusual.   They fray, etc. over time and use.    Just FYI, I would expect to pay around 7000 yen for this over here.   Just to give you a little guideline, perhaps.....
