Subject:"Yuhuchun" Pear-Shaped Vase is it old Chinese ?
Posted By: Greg James Fri, Feb 22, 2019 IP: 2600:1700:b392:4730: Hi. Recently acquired this vase with blue under-glaze, yellow, red overglaze at an estate where there was a great deal of authentic Ming items. It is 6" inches in height and 5" in width. Fine crackling throughout the piece, I am not sure of the nationality or age. Any thoughts would be most appreciated. I am new to this site. I hope to be able to answer some questions as well as ask in the future. Thank you. |

Posted By: Brandon McCloskey Mon, Feb 25, 2019 This strongly reminds me of Italian or Dutch hand painted folk art. |
