[QUOTE="sunday silence, post: 13153450, member: 6808"]There are issues with the mark itself. In the lower right character almost all the versions that are authentic below the scorpion thing there is a rectangle with a dash inside the rectangle. This one does not have that it is a series of parallel lines. Also the character in the lower left is a little odd, the candleabra like thing does have 5 prongs which is good sign but to the right it has an upside down "g" whereas most are different. Still there are specimens that do show the upside down g like this butterfly vase sold at CHristies (about 4/5 of the way down the page there is a closeup of the mark): [URL]https://antique-marks.com/qianlong-porcelain-marks-on-vases-and-other-art-from-qianlong-period.html[/URL] That one still has the normal rectangle dash in the lower right char.[/QUOTE]
