    Ming vase, it's been in my family probably since at least WWI when my fathers aunt Mary McMillan came back from overseas and helped introduce physical therapy into the US. Just for a date reference. I am proud to own this piece and it is NOT FOR SALE so don't ask tthank you. I can say I do remember when I was a small child my father was extremely angry with me when I cleaned it with winow cleaner, I was very young

      It is beautiful! I don’t recognize the mark, but my guess would be that it’s Japanese. You can try looking at gotheborg.com for the maker and date. Good luck
