    I picked up this footed bowl recently. I really like the dragons. I don't know when it was made, but assume either Guangxu or early 20th c. I'm not sure what the characters etched on the inside of the bowl are all about and the mark on the bottom is illegible to me. Any info appreciated!

      well there guess is as good as mine
      its is da qing tongzhi nian zhi , copple stones left under can,t be seen but are universal
      the right mark on the right ought to an inoculated gorilla with upturned shoulders

      so it is prone left u , pronge left right and pronge downside right

      probably export porcelain

      imo opinion it is not a ferro red closed frame

      it think to run this at is his earlest guisi or renchen year

      run the pinyin, nothing useful came up as a usename, the other reason the used names to provide food for large numbers at weddings
