Porcelain signature

Postby kwicher » 2021-03-10, 16:05

Hi

Would anybody be able to identify this signature as on the attached picture. I have just bought some porcelain set and would like to learn what it is if possible.

Thank you very much

For starters, it's upside down.

I can read the second and third characters, but I'm having trouble with the first.

The last character is 画, which I often see in artist's signatures.

The middle character is 田, which means "field" and is a very common element in Japanese surnames. The first element resembles 妻 (and 妻田 Tsumata is an established surname) except that it's missing two strokes and I can't come up with another character that incorporates these elements.
