Message When rotated 180 degrees, your two Chinese characters in seal-carving script read in Mandarin as Qianlong, which was the Chinese Qing Dynasty reign from 1736-1795. Among other reasons, since Qianlong reign marks were highly regulated during the period, there is no possibility of this being an authentic period piece. Good luck, Bill H. Post a Response |
