Subject:Blue and white bowl
Posted By: Lauren Hartz-Lewis Tue, May 22, 2018 IP: 2600:1700:9552:9210: Hello. I am hoping to identify the maker's mark on the bottom of this little bowl. Any help is appreciated! |

Posted By: Bill H Wed, May 23, 2018 The seal script mark reads down and across from the right as "Made during the Yongzheng Reign". The Qing Imperial Yongzheng reign ran from 1723-1735 and produced some of the more celebrated porcelains of the dynasty, all made and decorated by hand. This bowl's motif and mark were applied by printed transfer, a mass-production technique not used on a commercial scale in China until the early 20th century. Your bowl probably was made for the decorative or restaurant ware market in the late 20th century or more recently. |

Posted By: TD Wed, May 23, 2018 It’s not a maker’s mark but an apocryphal mark in seal script reading 雍正年製 meaning “Yongzheng period made.” The transfer applied seal mark, decoration and overall look of your bowl suggest a late 20th century date of production. |
