Re: Qianlong Dynasty ( Carved )
Well the marking is no guaruntee of authenticity when it comes to Chinese pieces, the screwsholding the hinges on however tell a different tale. They are cross head "Phillips Screws" an item that was not in production until about 1936. These were made for the export market, at auction I see them go for under $100.00 when properly identified.
Re: Qianlong Dynasty ( Carved )
This is absolutely a morden reproduction. Under $100
