Subject:Qianlong eggshell bowls
Posted By: Chris Sun, Oct 18, 2015 IP: 89.70.75.213

I bought this eggshell porcelain bowls with Qianlong mark. Are they from this period or later

These popular contemporary transfer-decorated bowls date to just about as long past the Qianlong period as they possibly could be. Originally they probably came in a protective box labeled "Made in China".

Best regards,

Bill H.

these bowls were likely made around 1950 or newer. The most obviose inication is that the marks appear stamped on rather than hand rendered which would be expected on Qianlong period porcelain. Furthermore, the enamel colors and design do not measure to the quality produced during the Qianlong period. Decorative bowls only.

Thank you for respons. I tought that this items are from Republic period. Hovever the cinnobar on stamp is very dark and similar to stamps from the end of XIX century. Generally the quality of painting is not bad and theey could be 100 - 150 years old. I have posted this because I tought that somebody could identified this items as brand new Hong Kong ware.
