Cf. my post: An underglaze-blue and copper-red 'sanduo' stemcup, Yongzheng mark and period (1723-1735)

In the absence of any other known examples without a mark or from other reign periods, it seem certain that the present example would also have had a Yongzheng mark to the interior of the foot which has now been effaced.
