Thank you for such a quick response.

Just wish it had a company name to try to identify the bowl.

Now there are too many fake. You can just treat it as 'Made in China' instead, ^_^.

@DanielYeung Very true, I was curious to learn more about this bowl that I had picked up and was curious if it was old or had any value.  At least it didn't have a little gold sticker saying "Made in China" on it as well.

<p>I am trying to translate the identification mark on a bottom of a Chinese bowl. I am almost positive the right two characters translate to "Jingde" but I can't seem to be able to figure out the left two characters.</p>

I am trying to translate the identification mark on a bottom of a Chinese bowl. I am almost positive the right two characters translate to "Jingde" but I can't seem to be able to figure out the left two characters.
