When might this jar have been made?
I left a broken mate to this as it was just pieces glued back together.
And the bottom.
Late Qing dynasty, Guangxu reign.
As I mentioned I left a reassembled mate to this jar.
As a point to discuss, what age or type of items have significant value even when broken and glued back together?
The problem with this decoration, it is the most copied design from the Kangxi period and so they made a ton of these, so I am sorry to say they would have a low collectors value, simple because there is so many of them out there.

I guess whatever has high value when not damaged will have some value when broken.
Speaking of that, what are the most rare and sought pieces and patterns? I see that age not always matter. You can have a republic pieces worth much more than ming.
Excluding the Imperial porcelain.
