It is definitely Chinese because only the Chinese use those kinds of markings. It is a stamp to signify the artist of the manufacturer. Think of it like a signature basically. I can't read ancient Chinese scripture, but I'm pretty sure it's just a guy's name.


Koreans and Japanese use similar markings.

This. You took a picture upside down:

大清乾隆年制

It says:

Made in Qing dynasty, during the era of Qian Long (one famous emperor)

Can you post a picture of the vase?

That is kind of cool. If that is not a replica then you found a 250 year old vase in your attic?

Most likely a replica. A lot of them with those seal came into N.A. in the 70s.

I'm not quite sure why, but following this thread is 10x more intriguing than watching antiques roadshow.

Yes, because people automatically assume this stuff is authentic.

ARS needs to have a "your shit is fake" episode, then just watch the responses. If it's anything like the people in China when they're told their stuff is fake, hilarity will ensue.

Can you take a picture from the top of the vase (looking inside)?

Also, can you take a picture of the bottom, including the outer rim?

I have some interest in Chinese pottery

Upon examining it more closely, it's probably fake. Typically, the seals during the Qian Long era should have two layers of borders.

Most of these are fake anyway. But then again, what do I know?
