    New find, Planter is 17" high, 22" wide. Base is 7" high and has ball bearings to rotate planter. Any ideas as to age?

      this is an mish -mash as far as i can see two dragons horizontal
      The dragon style on your vase is the NOT classic
      way to illustrate the Daoist dragon. The
      dragon symbolizes the power of wind, rain,
      thunder, and lightning. The water is the
      heavenly pond from which the dragon emerges.

      so you got a widening of the possible design , because normally it is cloud and thunder , and it probably still remains that simple, but the waves could could give a foam design

      to my suprise the rim design don,t repeat the front design
      the rim design is a stretch phoenix versus five clawed dragon competing the jewel of wishdown amidst clouds and flames, actually symbolisme for heavingly , and historiculy an royal court motif to represent heavingly power and spirit

      the bowl is signed da qing quianlong nianzhi

      normally this could be a Republic Period Planter, the tonality, the raised application , and the smoothness and the lack of fluidim , makes me think it is quite new

      i have to guess , but let,s say from 1960 on

      I appreciate your detailed response. Assumed it was relatively recent but quite attractive. Purchased at an estate sale for a fair price and will enjoy for many years to come.
