Subject:Xuande markings on brass vase
Posted By: Cas Tue, Jan 25, 2022 IP: 211.27.251.107 Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Handed down in the family. Are these markings replicated or original? What is this brass or copper? Sorry any idea there is a crack in the top of vase and inside is old and different colouring if that makes sense ? Would this be called a vase or something else? Should I have this looked at by a antique dealer or is there something particular I should be looking for? Thanks in advance! Look forward to your replies |

Posted By: Bill H Tue, Jan 25, 2022 This brass or bronze vase vase is a 20th century or later reproduction with a Ming Xuande mark that typically would have been copied through the lost wax method from another mark that itself was not true to a Ming original. |

Posted By: Jimi Reibel Fri, Dec 01, 2023 Hi- I have vase with the “De” character as it was used during the Xuande period. Does this mean it is Ming? Thanks for any help you can give . |

Posted By: Bill H Sun, Dec 03, 2023 In a word, no! Identification of Xuande bronzes with the correct de character still depend on judgment of their casting and stylistic qualities done by experts who can actually handle the pieces. |
