Hello everyone,


What are your opinions on this wanli style plate with apocryphal Chenghua mark?

I'm guessing early 19th century but it could be a fake as well, I don't see any direct age signs.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

JJ

Looks like a fake. The underside and interior bottom decoration, as well as the rim shape, are obviously imitating a Kraak design, but overall the glaze and pigment tone do not look right, in my view.

Hi Peter,


Great information, thanks.
The glaze is indeed suspicious.

I'll take a look at authentic pieces for pigment tones.


Kind regards,

JJ
