Subject:Translation of a vase hallmark/stamp
Posted By: Ray Wed, Mar 24, 2021 IP: 67.162.76.158

Hello,
Could someone identify the maker of this vase and how old it might be?
Thanks.

Could this be the work of Wang Bingrong? Apparently his work was copied a lot or imitated so could this be one of those?
The signatures I found online are very similar but not identical; however, I don't know Chinese so maybe this is a different way of writing his name or .....

王炳榮作 - Made by Wang Bingrong
The embossed mark can only be read Wang Bingron, but the characters here are out of balance, compared to other examples on the net.
This is especially convincing at the second character's "fire radical (火)" and the subsequent
丙 → 炳. Furthermore, the fourth 作 (made by) character on other works is represented in its seal script form, not like here in its block style form.
The final conclusion is yours.

With regards,
I.Nagy

Thank you very much I.Nagy. I am going to conclude that this is a copy.
