    Hi, my friend gave me this to see if i could help her with this mark on this hand painted footed bowl. If anyone has any information on the mark and age that would be great thanks!

    We're not too bad either.:playful:

    A very pretty censer, rink. Dragons chasing the pearl of wisdom.
    It is an apocryphal Qianlong mark. So marked like a Qianlong piece, but of a later date, in this case 20th century.
    The mark is this way around:;)

    That is a cutie too. Older than yours and a different maker, but the same idea.
    I really like the pale blue on yours, it gives it a gentle look, if you can say that about a censer with fierce dragons. That strong blue of the other one is more popular, which will be reflected in the value, just like the age will be. I love it too, but in this case I prefer the blue of your censer.

    Off to look at the other gorgeous items in the auction.....
