The mark on the base is "Qianlong period made" and it presents an unusual mistake once chinese character 乾 "Qian" is not correctly written in archaic seal script as the others three characters.
Possibly the handcraftman had not knowledge enough about ancient characters and that means by itself a non emperial work.
Cheers
