[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 407972, member: 2844"]Pleasure, Gianluca. The fact that Chinese marks often mean nothing at all with regards to the period or value is indeed precious knowledge.;) I think most 'Chinese Imperial mark' questions here are about these recent marks, also called 'apocryphal marks'. Chinese ceramics are a science, really. There are so many little details to consider. If you don't know much about the subject, it is best to buy something only if you like it, it is undamaged, and you think the price is good for a recent, second-hand piece. Even if you think it could be antique. And you can always ask here.:)[/QUOTE]
