Subject:Is this a vase? Kangxi marked!
Posted By: Johan Sun, Oct 20, 2019 IP: 85.229.1.50

Hello,
I wonder if anyone can tell me if this is a vase and whats the shape is called or used for?
The measurements 22.5 cm wide and 38 cm high!
Its marked with kangxi period 6 character!
I assume this is a modern copy?
Is there anybody with knowledge about this shape/vase and if its modern (1900)replica/fake

Best Regards
Johan B

A vase, yes, Kangxi, no. Very contemporary-looking.

Thanks Bill, for clarifying about my vase!

I was told with this special shape, probably it's not a vase! It was maybe used for pouring water!

I'm fresh out of water bottles, but the typical one would have the essential form of the bottle vase seen below, plus would have come new with a cap. Yours would fall into the category of mallet vases.

Best regards,

Bill H.
