Posted By: Bill H Thu, Oct 28, 2021 Both 製 and 制 can have the meaning "to make" although 制 tends to lean toward "create" and "製" to "Manufacture" if I read my Mathews Chinese-English Dictionary correctly. Also, nowadays Mainland China dictionaries don't even include the 製 character after selecting 制 for use as the simplified standard character for all connotations in its post-1949 rectification of the alphabet. So your stamp is not necessarily fake but could just be old (or a modern copy requiring examination of other factors to judge authenticity). |
