Subject:Chinese vase. How old ?
Posted By: Golgatha Wed, Nov 29, 2017 IP: 87.60.72.184

Can anyone tell me how old this 35 cm high vase is ? And interpret the sign ?

Dear Golgatha

The mark is a transfer printed Qianlong mark. Transfer printing did not exist in Chinese porcelain before about 1925. Therefore this object is modern.

Kind regards
J.Lim

The stamped or decal mark is of the QianLong emperor but the vase isn't. Probably second half of 20th C at earliest.
