Subject:Vase Bronze Dragon (Japanese or Chinese ?)
Posted By: Rodolphe Tue, May 12, 2020 IP: 109.88.141.199
Hello

I need your help.
Could you tell me if this vase is Japanese or Chinese.
Does the seal mark at the bottom mean anything? is it possible to date the age of this vase?
Thanking you for your help

It is Japanese,
大日本文政年整珉鑄　-　Dai Nihon Bunsei-nen Seimin-chu - Casted by Seimin During the Bunsei Era in the Japanese Empire

Bunsei era: 1818-1830
Murata Seimin 　村田整珉　(1st gen.) 1761-? caster
He started to use this stamp and it is believed that continued to be used during successive periods.

With regards.
I.Nagy
