Subject:Unknown Chinese Porcelain Mark
Posted By: Peter Tue, Dec 03, 2019 IP: 2601:8c3:8200:e5c0:4
I have this porcelain box and I cannot find a match to the mark on the base. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

This is a seal script mark of 'Made during the Guangxu Reign' (Guang xu Nian Zhi - 光緒年製), apparently a fake of the Republic Period or later. There's no indication that this mark was used during the Guangxu period (1875-1908), either in Tony Allen's latest book ('Allen's Antique Chinese Porcelain - The Detection of Fakes') or in the Mainland China-published 'Compendium of Marks on Historical Chinese Porcelains'.

Best regards,
