hi! i recently received this vase from my grandma and am trying to find out a bit more about it (e.g time period, where it was made, anything really). ive included a picture of the maker's mark at the bottom, and i would appreciate it if someone could help me identify it! thank you :)
I'm sure Apostata will be along shortly..but there seems to be a lot of these on ebay. I believe they're 20th century copy. But let's hear what Waki says..
insert waki ( on pending jewel and slicing abbreviated qianlong , hybrid)
unless i am wrong you must have a quite young grandma
the mark is an abbreviated da qing Qianlong Nian Zhi which means so great qing qianlong period make , chances into qianlong period made , because the da qing is out( 1736-1795)
just forget it is 20 century, it,is nonsense
IMO opinion the actual question is , is this first generation , the so called Republic Period, or is this early PRoc 1949-1966
personnaly i think they are trying to fool us , to represent an first generation ( the scene, and the using of an closed framed pseudo ferro red mark, and the watery fluidum of the stroking shuts it out, imo it is second generation someting like 1960
in what kind of vase are we , we are in the famous pending jewel design see first photo the top
unfortunaly we can,t see the very top in photo 1 , so we are missing the social antroposophical part of this,
on the very top there ought to be a ring of sliced lotus scepter the emblem of He Xiangu, one of the Eight Daoist immortals.well they decapitated it so only the heart remains,( ruyi) , ( a chain of hearts)
and the heart it is the pictural equivalent of the term as one wishes,
one wishes or your,s heart,s or comfortable desired ad infinitum , because it is ringwise
cute vase
correction forget the 19 century it is 20 century
