I had a look here: http://japanesebonsaipots.net/chop-and- ... -resource/
Couldn't match any of the stamps but admittedly didn't have a real detailed look.
From what I recall the person who runs that blog can help with ID's.
Cheers,

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Looks to me like a modern (<100 years) nice quality chinese pot, that said i dont recconise the chops so it could be something else but thats what it looks like to me.

Strange, the large oval chop and the... Uh.. Peanut shaped chop look Chinese, but the square one is definitely Japanese. :-S
There are many ways to do things, but only one "best" way.

Re: Love this pot and need I.D please.
I contacted the previous owner who was not much help 
Story goes that she purchased it of a very old lady who could not do Bonsai anymore she purchased it ages ago and thought it was 18th century but i highly doubt that. I will continue to dig.

Re: Love this pot and need I.D please.
Spot on Jow, Ryan could not I.D the chops either but said exactly what you said. Not hugely valuable (didnt discover the grailJow wrote:Looks to me like a modern (<100 years) nice quality chinese pot, that said i dont recconise the chops so it could be something else but thats what it looks like to me.
) but if i keep it for another hundred years than i guess..Oh..i'll be dead 
My Jasmine will look great in it though.You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
