identify mark

by craig
(new south wales,australia)

Hi
I was wondering if someone could help me with this mark identification
the mark is a bit fuzzy but hopefully it is recognisable

it is from a small vase purchased in australia
to me it looks like a Kangxi Nian Zhi mark but im not sure
hoping you can clarify
cheers

The mark is indeed a Kangxi mark, but it is apocryphal. Nonetheless your vase seems to be from the late Qing dynasty, Guangxu reign.

The decoration is typical for export porcelain of the Guangxu reign, when a lot of items were also given Kangxi marks.
