It's not Satsuma or repro. Just a vase in Oriental style.

How many toes on the dragons ?

Well repro gets mentioned an awful lot when it's not repro. Satsuma ware usually has the mon somewhere on the item - the cross within a circle.

Another term often used in Chinese or Japanese art is " Dog Of Fo " and there's no such thing.

True, would that make it a repo then?

No, satsuma is a region where the pottery is made !! They have been making pottery for many years !! Much of it is sold to other companies who do the decoration/painting !! I think its still being imported !! If I remember correctly its a tin glazed pottery much like majolica !!  This looks like maybe 1960 or after !!  If I had to put a value on this one,,around $20. !!  Prices are not too good for oriental style right now,, except for the very old ones and even they are down a bit !!

Yep !!

Satsuma looks nothing like Majolica, other than some of the more modern items that have ' moriage ' decoration and aren't really Satsuma at all.

I have a smaller vase similar to the one on the right.

Record prices for Oriental items in the last couple of years.

Not the glaze either.

Unless you're talking about those crappy coffee sets that millions have and they're not Satsuma.
