    I was hoping someone could figure out what the script says. I purchased this piece about 24 years ago from the estate of a gentleman who had an amazing collection of antiques

      It's 6 char Qianlong mark for sure in a rare font.
    2. shrine shrine, 10 years ago
      The link contains the 4 char to the left. Means "Made in Qianlong era"

      Thank you for the info, its a start for me to go on. I think the script its self is a problem since it was probably used for certain provinces in china. Any advice on where to go from here?

      I have no knowledge about which provinces it was made in, but the purplish color is called "foreign blue" in China. This kind of dye material was imported and used after mid 1800. Hope the would give you some clue.
