Re: Hagi ware, Japan
It's a Hagi chawan. The wari kodai (cut foot) is typical of pottery from in and around Hagi City and the glaze is also one of the two most typical glazes they use there.
I have a book that shows members of the Hagi Association of Ceramic Artists in 2004, which is almost entirely in Japanese, so I'll see if I can find the mark.

Re: Hagi ware, Japan
Been through the book of over 100 members and can't find the mark but it's definitely Hagi.

An Oni-Hagi chawan by Ken Komatsu.
This is perhaps the most typical Hagi glaze there is. Oni means demon or devil, which are thought of as lucky in Japan. The glaze is a think white affair that is made in order to crawl during firing and is said by some to represent cherry blossom.
One important point to note about Hagi teabowls is that they leak when initially used, which is something that is regarded as a positive feature believe it or not. The pores in the gritty porous clay do get filled with use.

Re: Hagi ware, Japan
Yes, Japanese Hagi ware. Worth checking if the stamp is Seigan Yamane. I have some of his but they’re all packed away at the moment

Re: Hagi ware, Japan
My initial research had led me Seigan Yamane but I haven't seen any with the double mark like this.

Re: Hagi ware, Japan
Traditional Japanese yunomi but I’m afraid I’ve no idea what the mark says
