Chinese spoon and bowl
Do these markings give any indication of age? Both the spoon and the lidded bowl are marked.
Is this Famille Verte export ware?

Re: Chinese spoon and bowl
The short answer is that no Chinese marks are a real indication of age. Their take on putting older marks on pottery is "paying homage" whereas we might say it's a way of tricking the customer.

Re: Chinese spoon and bowl
Best to try the Gotheborg website. They have a very good list of marks and pottery styles.
As SP says, the mark is no indication of age. The colours of these pieces look mid-20thC
