Hi Guys,

We recently went through our nanas stuff and found a vase.
Would anyone have any idea of value.
I have sent photos to varying valuers etc but have heard nothing back so far.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
I am thinking it is Kangxi
It has elephant head handles and the main picture is 2 deers sitting under a tree and two birds on the back
The pictures are blue on a white background

Judging by the non-traditional shape and the "ears" (elephant decoration) this was probably sometime in the 20th century. A closeup picture of the bottom might provide additional information.

Yes indeed, the shape of the foot rim indicates a manufacturing time later in the 20th century. The shape of the rim could also mean that it was injected rather than thrown.
