Old chinese porcelain!

actually they do
the small one is cut into the clay? and the second (OP's) is a stamp. not hand written for sure. sorry about that Abdel

edit: that symbol in the centre is very common but i cannot remember what it is exactly ... maybe stylised double happiness??

 

actually they do
So you're saying this item is old and rare and expensive.....

 

nope. sorry i am just saying that the characters are the same. there is a term for this: using an old mark to "honor" the crafts/craftsmen of that period, or something like that ... my brain is a sieve

 

I find the marks to be similar...but not the same...

 

ah so my bad

 

Sorry it didn't turn out to be something special. I've been there myself. It is disappointing. Perhaps the next bit.

 

i think this is the best answer,yong zheng nian zhi mark,mid 20th century.

 

Abdel, in Chinese marks the same characters do not mean the same period. It is always detective work, you have to look at all the details of both the mark and the piece itself.

Yes, it is often a salute, sign of respect, or reference to an earlier period. They are called apocryphal marks.

Join the club.

 

Thanks for the great informations

 

Seal "Made in Yongzheng period". However, i believe it is not as old as the PERIOD at all. Maybe mid 20th century. Value is small. You really should have photoed the side patterns so we can see the quality of hand-painting
