Hello everyone,
what do you think about this vase?
Thank you in advance,

?? year - see cyclical calendar http://www.chinese-antique-porcelain.com/cyclic-calendar.html
You have of choice of 1936 or 1996.
Sorry but I am going to say 1996
Thank you Peter, Stan, for your inputs.
Stan, I'm sorry, but it's impossible to be 1996, the vase was a wedding gift in 1976, offered by an asian family established in Belgium. In that day was damaged by mistake, as you can see, the vase is restored at the neck. That's the history I know.
Best regards,
Simonne
My mistake sorry Simonne, there is so much new Chinese porcelain that looks just like it.
I would have gone for 1996 too. It can hardly be 1936 without any relevan age signs. Perhaps a later copy...
Another thing to think about is the vases from that period of this type were always signed as far as I know usually with a red apocryphal mark seldom blue mark.
