Wan Shou Wu Jiang

Wan-Auspicious character meaning innumerable, literary 'ten thousand'.

hou-Auspicious character meaning 'longevity

Zhongguo (China) Jingdezhen 'Made In China' small mark horizontal

this is porcelain with a high percantage of lead

its number before letters letters

Wu-Auspicious character meaning 'no', together with jiang as in wujiang meaning 'limitless

1441. Jiang-Auspicious character meaning 'border', together with wu as in wujiang meaning 'limitless'

actually you get an principle of double emphasing

because the 10000 is also endless much for chinese is 10000 a manner to endless, so big it can,t be measured

so is around 1970, too lazy to search see site watersikdragon
