    I have been looking for some time now to read this. I think it is a 4 character mark but the way script is written I can't decipher. Screenshot_20230115-225801~2.png

    They usually have a maker's mark, not a reign mark.

    I can read the lower left symbol as it is easy. I cannot make out the emperor characters. That is the reign mark on bottom of teapot.

    I don't know how to say it any other way. The mark is a maker's mark, or the mark of a shop, not a reign mark. There are thousands.

    I dont want to argue about this i asked for someone to read it. It is some kind of script. If you can't read it dont do anything else. The symbol on bottom left is made in or made for am I not right in that it says something.

    the reign marks you show, bears no resemblance to the mark on your item..

    I realize that they are just the same layout. The problem is instead of reading it we keep arguing whether it is or is not a reign mark. My point was it looks like a reign mark.

    Thank you very much. I would hope to figure it out now. Just glanced at it but bingo.

    Scratch that bingo. I can't figure it out. But I'm convinced that someone at sometime should be able to translate. They just might not be with us anymore.
