This is a Takito japanese porcelain mark. Japanese ceramic has a long history dating back to the Neolithic period. It is produced differently in each of the 47 prefectures in Japan. This is the reason why ceramics are named after the place of origin. This mark is one of the standard mark of the Japaense company called The Takito Company (1880-1948). Known for lustreware (lusterware) decoration taken originally from the technical developments done at Noritake. They also made moriage wares in the Satsuma style and many other types of tablewares. The diamond/rectangle pottery mark with the "T-T" mark is found on much of their lustreware production and so likely dates from the 1920' and 30's when this decoration style was fashionable. The period 1913-1926 is referred to as the Taisho period. The 1930's onwards is the Showa period.
