Posted By: Bill H Tue, Jul 19, 2022 The first mark appears to be that of a butterfly and is found in the China-published “Collection of Classical Markings on Chinese Historical Porcelains” (Zhongguo lidai taoci kuanzhi dadian - 中国历代陶瓷款识大典). In my opinion, the second picture simply shows decoration in the cavetto, albeit might also be used as a base mark in other instances. I have a shallow bowl with similar decoration which has a square factory base mark consisting of a non-character cipher within a double square border of a type that was used in the late Ming and Kangxi period and also is pictured in the above-referenced book. |

Posted By: Tracy chalhoub Wed, Jul 27, 2022 Hi Bill, Thank you for your post. I really appreciate the help with this. Is the reference “collection of classical Markings” in print form or is it viewable online. |
