According to an on-line reference this mark was used from 1732 - 1773 &amp; is referred to as the &quot;Dot Period&quot;. I agree with Sperls that from the photo it does look like it might be the real deal.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://antique-marks.com/meissen-marks.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://antique-marks.com/meissen-marks.html" rel="nofollow">http://antique-marks.com/meissen-marks.html</a> </p><p><br /></p><p>I have had a couple of Meissen pieces &amp; have seen many come through the auction house. It is the quality of the painting &amp; how it is finished. It is also the overall feel &amp; weight of the piece as you hold it in your hand. Look closely for any impressed marks on the bottom.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
