Posted By: Oliver Mon, Dec 02, 2019 The mark is Qianlong 1736-1795 but it is apocryphal however if they were bought in Thailand in the 1960's there is a very good chance that they are late Qing and still of considerable value,nice pair of vases |

Posted By: Bill H Mon, Dec 02, 2019 This style of Qianlong mark is illustrated as typical of the Republic period (1912-49) in Tony Allen's latest book, 'Allen's Antique Chinese Porcelain - The Detection of Fakes'. The photos here also appear to show traces of the kind of grime that was routinely rubbed onto Chinese vases of that period and later to try to make them look older than their actual age. I rather doubt your vases are as old as the Qing period, which ended in 1911. |
