<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hunt2, post: 10230267, member: 85118&quot;]My seal has the same machine marks as on a chinese bronze manchu seal from the qianlong period sold by christie&#039;s. And what&#039;s obvious is the patination from being in an incense burned filled room for a long time. as an 18th century&nbsp; incense burner see link below. But that is just my opinion. </p><p><br /></p><p>And i don&#039;t trust sotheby&#039;s because they have way to many seals for sale, proclaiming they are all imperial. That would be the same as that an auction house had a imperial ming vase every month / year. see link</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/art-asia/bronze-manchu-officials-seal-660/156161" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/art-asia/bronze-manchu-officials-seal-660/156161" rel="nofollow">https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/art-asia/bronze-manchu-officials-seal-660/156161</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://bloomsburypdx.com/products/antique-japanese-meiji-period-bronze-censer" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://bloomsburypdx.com/products/antique-japanese-meiji-period-bronze-censer" rel="nofollow">https://bloomsburypdx.com/products/antique-japanese-meiji-period-bronze-censer</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
