chinese marked / signed..... ca.1880s?

a friend asked me to get some informations about this one

sorry

It's possible, but it's a 4 character mark, not a 6 character reign mark, which implies it's a 20th Century factory made piece. Whether it's early or late 20th Century I wouldn't like to say. Difficult to tell from the photos but there does seem to be a degree of wear on the gilding which might mean it's early 20th Century.

You might be able to track down the mark on this site http://gotheborg.com/marks/index_marks.htm
