Message Both jars made late 20th century or later. Their form is very old one used for food storage, often called 'ginger jar.' Jar 1 has mark of Qianlong reign (Qing Dynasty), very popular in 20th century for items made both Japan and China. Jar 2 has mark of Kangxi reign (Qing Dynasty), also popular mark to put on items made much later. Both marks in this case supposed to suggest high quality, not necessarily meant to deceive about when made, especially since not well written. Jars may have had stickers for place made. Do internet search you can find many examples genuine items made each reign, and how genuine marks look. Post a Response |
