<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 480549, member: 59&quot;]You did not read the heading for the marks section where you found this mark. Note the sentence I have bolded.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;The mark is referring to the Qianlong period (1736-1795) during the Qing dynasty. However, in these marks the <i>Nian Zhi</i> [period make] of the regular mark is omitted. <b>So far I have not seen any mark of this type that appears to be older than the 1970s.</b> It is worth remembering that during 1965-70 was the period of the &#039;Glorious Cultural Revolution&#039; 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.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
