Chinese porcelain flower pot hider

Thrift store find. 23 cm X 24 cm X 21 cm. Ca. 1900-1920 ? Maybe you can date it more precisely ? Maybe the mark is upside down ? I can't translate it. Maybe you can ?

 

maybe a bonsai planter?

 

Thanks komokwa. Yes, possibly.

 

So people don't have to stand on their heads to read it:

 

Same mark on this bowl,

Seller claims it's "1725-1735 Chinese Yongzheng Qing Dynasty" ...

 

It does say Yongzheng etc, but both marks are much too sloppy to be Yongzheng period, or any other Qing period mark.

Also, the way it is written is not the old way, where you see how the brush rested at the beginning or end of a character, which is slightly thicker with more concentrated colour.

 

Phew.
