This is the second item. Even more doubtful on this. Please your opinion!
Thank you very much.

It seems to be a fake. The bottom does not look for the Yuan dynasty, and Yuan B/W meiping vases usually had lids, with the mouth/neck having for this purpose a conical shape. (Correction: this mouth shape did also exist at the time.)
The foot rim shape is odd, in my view, as is the consistency/look of the unglazed base.
I doubt that you would find something like this in the open market. Most big Yuan B/W items are in the Topkapi in Istanbul and in Iran, where they were exported to in the Yuan dynasty.
Thank you very much, Peter.
Hi Pablo,
If you are interested in Yuan blue & white items I would recommend to first buy a small item. There were lots of small jarlets exported to SE Asia, especially to today's Indonesia, during that period. I have never had the opportunity to handle anything larger than a bowl. Even those are quite rare here.
