Republic Vase Ju Ren Tang Mark

[smak]

Hi all,

I know these were made in a short period of time 83 days if this vase is authentic.

I thought the quality of the painting was not the best.

When do you think this was made? ANd what are your thoughts?

This is the mark of Yuan Shi-kai, the general who tried to usurp the Chinese throne after the last emperor  abdicated. He did not succeed.

But the ceramics of this period should either show the same qualities as late Qing, or better. The quality of this is not sufficient for either. A fake, in my opinion.
