Thank you will be using this later on!! You guys are awsome.

 

Oki will do!! Thanks! Oh and i think i found it heres the name Da Qing Qianlong - "Great Qing Dynasty Qianlong Period. Thanks again!

 

Lizee - you do understand that this jar was not made in that period, but much more recently, right?

 

Well inform me please hehe cause im alittle lost here lol

 

The Chinese honor prior periods of their culture's artistic history a lot. Many marks that we see here (this one included) are "honorific." The colors, decoration style and the bright gold on the finial are 20th century at least - could even be 21st.

 

In other words, Bakers is nicely saying that the Chinese have been copying their own art for hundred of years.

 

Your piece is newer. The faces of the girls are more Anglicized, the gold on the foo dog is too heavy and his details are not clear.

 

You did not read the heading for the marks section where you found this mark. Note the sentence I have bolded.

"The mark is referring to the Qianlong period (1736-1795) during the Qing dynasty. However, in these marks the Nian Zhi [period make] of the regular mark is omitted. So far I have not seen any mark of this type that appears to be older than the 1970s. It is worth remembering that during 1965-70 was the period of the 'Glorious Cultural Revolution' in China and not much porcelain, and certainly not any with any Imperial references, was made inside China proper during this time. I think that any porcelain with Imperial Chinese references in the mark had their decoration added outside of China."

 

Omg sorry guys im a total noob when it comes to this hehe, but thanks for clearing things up!! Im the little fishy in the shark tank lol!! Love you guys!
