Hello,

Can anyone help me identifying the mark on this plate?

Thank you so much

If you flip the last image 180 degrees, the mark will read down and across from the top right as 'Made during the Chenghua Reign" (成化年製 - Cheng hua nian zhi). This is an apocryphal mark of the Ming emperor who ruled from 1465-1487. The dish dates from circa the late Qing years, probably about 1900 into the early Republic period (1912-1949).

Best regards,

Bill H.
