Subject:large Qianlong mark plate?
Posted By: rcorb Wed, Sep 23, 2015 IP: 98.225.140.126

Can anyone tell if this is an authentic Qianlong mark on this plate. I am trying to learn about Asian pottery and read that the "candlabrum" in the sixth character should have more than 3 prongs and this mark shows only three. The plate has a beautiful raised design and measures 17 3/4" diameter. The back and bottom show some staining and age but the top is in excellent condition. Also, when tapped, the plate "rings" quite loudly.
Thanks in advance for any information.

Sorry .... no.
Your plate is (rather) modern and mark doesn't read "Qianlong" but "Daoguang".

Arjan
