All I have on the shelf that might be germane is this "Restoration Kiangsi" plate with decoration of geese. I believe the piece piece is a "Restoration Jiangxi" sample plate made circa 1930 at Jingdezhen. The former Xuantong Emperor, Puyi, accepted a Japanese offer and became the head of the puppet Manchukuo state in Northeastern China in 1932, using a reign title of "Datong". In any event, I doubt the Republic of China whould have been granting him any honors around that time.
Best regards,
