Hello everyone....so I was curious about this lamp I had so took it apart and found mystery inside. So unfortunately cracked bottom side and some pieces missing from bottom marking of maker. Can someone help me with this mystery?

in chinese you got different kinds of scripts , you got the archaic seal script - AKa Zuanshu and you got the Kaishu script
this is Kaishu script and it reads da qing tongzhi nian zi = = tongzhi period maded ( 1862-1874, but is da qing tongzhi nian zhi revival so made after 1960
it is an complete fantasy vase the used the buddhist symbole twin fish , which means happy marriage , conjugal felicity etc
the vase , fi means perpetual harmony
the purple color is also strange, probably the maker was addicted to candy canes , and is now in rehab
cute vase
