Hi, Have this jug or pitcher that has enamel painted scenes with the Western hongs in Canton. Posted on another forums and most people said it’s a reproduction of the 18th century Chinese export porcelain. Similar bicentenniel wares were done for the USA 200th birthday celebration in the 70’s. That is what I know so I want to double check if that it what it is. Also, I read somewhere else that the mark on the bottom is Chinese and translates as something like Fu Gui Tang Zhi’ (Made for/by the Hall of Riches and Honors. Anyone can confirm that? Like, is that supposed to be a makers mark or something else? Thanks in advance!
