Dear Members, I have already post this vase and the suggestion was to be early Republic period.
Now I am asking if it is included a date in the calligraphy.
To me it looks to see a cyclical date 1921; I refer to this table: http://www.koh-antique.com/qj/table/table.htm.

Thank you and best regards.

Sure, this is republic period. But why you think there is a cyclical date is a mystery to me. His and yours have completely different contents.

Sorry, I cannot read Chinese.
They seem to me same ideograms, but I am wrong.

Thank you Peter.

Hehe... despite being able to read Chinese, handwriting is sometimes difficult to read. But that is the same with native Chinese speakers, who sometimes cannot read the handwriting on such porcelain either. The painters of Qianjiang porcelain did often not write with 'clean' standard characters.
