Title: Cobalt Blue Vase (Likely Republic/ Maybe even Modern)
Post by: smak on May 23, 2023, 17:10:26
Hi All,

this case has Yongzheng mark but I do not believe it to be from that era. 13 inches tall. The mark doesn't even seem proper to me as well. But the size of it is what got to me.

20th century, in my view.
The glaze has too much gloss, it should be reflecting light, but here it shows every detail in the background like a mirror.
In addition, the inside of the mouth looks as if the color was sprayed on.
