Posted By: Bill H Mon, Jan 22, 2018 You have a Chinese contemporary decorative plate. The two-part base-mark consists of an upper apocryphal mark of "Made during the Qianlong Reign of the Great Qing Dynasty" within an oblong quatrefoil cartouche. Beneath it are three characters reading from the right as "Macao Colors" or "Macao Variety" - 澳門彩 - Aomen Cai). |

Posted By: Miki Tue, Jan 23, 2018 Dear Bill, thanks for your anwser, I saw that the signature was Chinese, but I saw many Japanese plates with very similar design, and I thought that maybe Japanese did it for Chinese. |
