<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JayBee, post: 435797, member: 9259&quot;]Da Qing Dao Guang would be (if a real piece) 1821-1850. Keep in mind though that modern copies of everything are made these days. Also, historically, there have always been copies made of earlier pieces throughout the years, ex., a Ming Dynasty piece copied during the Qing Dynasty, would still qualify as an antique, just not original Ming, etc. When it comes to dating even the pros disagree. I have had a Chinese piece dated about 400 years apart by experts from Christie&#039;s and Sotheby&#039;s... The fish bowl however is a modern piece, and the &quot;seal&quot; is just evocative probably of an original similar piece that inspired this copy. (In my opinion the craftsmanship is not remarkable.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
