Subject:Translation of Chinese Square Marks Food Warmer?
Posted By: Billy D Thu, Mar 29, 2018 IP: 70.181.51.57
Hi anyone have any idea what these marks are supposed to mean? I know one says something about Yongzheng emperor. This may be a food warmer not sure what it is. Very heavy and is trussed on inside with rectangular slabs of porcelain.

Looks like a hair receptacle.

Reading of markings,
唐英督陶製寶　-　Pottery treasure made under the inspection of Tang Ying
内務宮廷専用　-　Only for use in the Imperial Palace
皇清雍正御覧　-　Qing Yongzheng Emperor`s Authentic Appreciation
I am not sure with the reading the next one
大清雍正珍寶　-　Qing Empire Yongzheng Treasure
大清雍正統政年製　-　Made during the reign of Yongzheng in the Qing Empire

With regards,
I.Nagy

Hello Billy.
Others will know and will respond I'm sure. The work on the serpent / dragons is fantastic. Even detail of the teeth is fabulously done. Got to be at least antique with the quality and possibly much more.
As for use, I have no idea other than the inclined neck's equidistant on each corner suggest to me this was made to hold something long. A stick perhaps . I can't wait to see the answers. Best wishes David
