My father bought this vase in the end of the 50 beginning of 60, he was a sailor, and I dont know to
much about thise vase.  I think it is from China?

It is 23 cm high and approx 12,5 cm wide.  I cant see this kind and I am wonder if someone can help me?

Seems to be wucai.
In my view there are two possibilities: an imperial Ming dynasty vase or a 20th century fake item.
I would opt for the latter.

Thank you for the fast answer.  This is the only thing I have after my father and thats why I would like
to know a little more about it.  He also brought a big vase which I know had a very high value, but
the little I have been looking in internet.... I  can agree that it looks different then vases from the Ming periode.

The print under the vase in blue... means jiajing?

Anyone with a little knowledge can determine that it is a fake vase, or do you recomend me to
bring it to a specialist/store?

The photos are much to small, to get a better idea of the age, you will need to send better close up pictures of the detail and of the bottom rim and of the marks and top rim, these photos should be clear, I do agree with Peter that it is less likely to be from the period of the mark, but if it is 19th century it would have collective value.
