Large Chinese Blue-White Vase

[Kaaren B.]

Hello, all. Seems to have been quiet here!

With the warm weather arriving, people are again holding estate and yard sales. Today, I picked this up for $2. I assume it is transfer-ware, as the borders are so even, at least in the middle of the vase. I am guessing this is 20th century, but as I cannot read the mark, I hope one of you can help with that.

I am sorry it is not an antique, but I would still like to know what the mark says. And, the spring sales have just begun, so perhaps I will turn up something more interesting yet.

For $2, I felt I could not leave it behind. I hope everyone is well!

Hi Kaaren,
Yes, it has been eerily quiet.

The mark is a Qianlong reign mark, but as you already said, it seems to be some sort of printing. The insufficient resolution does not allow seeing details.
Cannot see if it is transfer or some other kind of printing, but either way it will be 20th century.

Thank you, Peter. I doubt its value is worth taking more of your time - at $2 it will do nicely in some corner, but I am glad to know the mark.

As there is a large Korean-Chinese population in my area, I hope as the "Yard Sale/Moving Sale" season gets going that I will find something more interesting to present!
