For those interested, the Metropolitan Museum has an e-book on Chinese ceramics on their website for download - for free.

I can find nothing like a vase on page 30. You should mention the page number in the PDF file, the page number in a reader app may differ.

That was in the Preface, Stan. I looked in the main body of the book.

Yes, both items look right for Yuan. Good sample picture.
