Hello, can you help identify origin, period, value?

Your vase has double-gourd form and "millefleurs" decoration, with an apocryphal six-character base-mark of "Made during the Qianlong Reign of the Great Qing Dynasty" (Da Qing Qianlong Nian Zhi - 大清乾隆年製). Some vases with this motif and mark may date to the Republic era (1912-1949), but this one, with its turquoise ground overlapping the edges of a reign mark that looks to be mechanically drawn, probably dates more recently in contemporary times.

For current selling prices, you might wish to use the above descriptive terms to search liveauctioneer.com or eBay archives.

Best regards,

Bill H.
