This antique Asian vase was in my Grand parents collections.
I don't know if it is Chinese or Vietnamese...
Very old crazing in the glaze, antique silver cap added to the opening.
23 cm high (about 9.5"), base diameter is 7cm or 2.3/4"
No marks!
Interesting vase, kyratango! Let's see what the experts have to say about it. :)
Thank you Katherine, I hope Shrine or Wexval or Asian collectors will have an opinion :-)

Thank you for your interest and compliment Sunnybrook!
Mike, thank you, it looks like it has been buried, the glaze is very worn.

Very beautiful and special piece Kyra. I hope you can get a positive on it. I know it will be a keeper for you whatever it is. Family pieces are very so very special.

Thank you OGF! Without mark, I think only a, Asian antique ceramic collector will know...
beautiful! i think it's vietnamese.
Thank you Ho2cultcha, I think too as my Grand parents lived in French Indochina, and had lots of Vietnamese antiques, but not sure as Bleu de Hué were made in China for Vietnamese market...
now i think it's a Japanese sake bottle.
Thank you Ho2 and renedijkstra for your ideas!
the top could be cut down, hence the silver.
