Vase is 12" tall, 5-1/2" at widest point, 3-3/4" at base. 1-1/4" top opening.
The glaze feels like it has pimples. It weighs 2lb -3.7 ounces.
I thought someone stacked 2 vases on top of each other and have never seen anything like it but I got the description from Gotheborg website after looking for hours.
I don't know what the red thing is but it feels like a price sticker. I have removed worse so I decided to leave it alone. :)
Been busy and missed ya'll. Got a lot of smalls I might post. It's kind of embarrassing but ...you know!! :):)
Thanks for looking and any info!!
Have a great weekend everybody.
Here is the link I found TRYING to compare the bottom stamp.

The only four character Kangxi reign (1662 to 1722) marks are in a double square, made at Jingdezhen for imperial use and are extremely rare. The mark on this double gourd vase is likely 20th century.
It is Chinese, not Japanese, so......I'm sorry, but can't help. [;>)
Thanks so much wexval. It's fun but so hard to figure out. :) So, is this like a knock off/repo/fake? I have never seen or felt a glaze like this.
So embarrassing. Thanks Nevada.
That's a great vase - I like double gourds and the blue decor just lifts this.
Me? I always assume my Chinese (and Japanese) ceramics are 20thC, and I get them confused too!!!
Thanks for saving face here Karen. ;) LOL and the love.
Thanks wexval and again to Nevada.

Wonderful vase OneGoodFind!
Thank you for the comment and love Scott. :)
As several others say on here, this item is no longer in my collection.
If this is not allowed...?? IDK
Several of my posts have been deleted and I don't understand what I am doing wrong. So any information on that I welcome. You all have been exceptional and supportive and if I have offended anyone or the site I sincerely apologize but please let me know what I have done wrong. Thank you all for your help.
hello one goodfind i also have a teapot from the kangxi period goes realli well with your gourd. unsure if its real too. It has that double square thingy that wexval mentioned about
I'd like to believe it's actually GuangXu reign period, instead of KangXi. It's a common practice in GuangXu era to mark their best product as KangXi to make customers happy. Even if the mark writing is way better than most Guangxu ware, I still think it's from late 19c.
i agree with shrine a sort of kangxi revival stuff
