This is a beautiful and large porcelain vase with an imperial Chinese reign mark indicating that it was produced in the Ming period. However, like several other pieces I have listed that were all purchased from the same dealer, I believe that this is a twentieth century reproduction. As a result, you get a a beautiful with all the appeal of an original at only a fraction of the cost. It measures roughly 42 cm in height and has a colorful phoenix and cherry blossom motif.
This is a very large, very attractive dragon and lotus vase with a 6 character Wanli mark on the base. The mark would suggest a manufacture period of 1573-1619 in the Ming Dynasty but I am fairly certain this is a modern replica. Nonetheless it is a beautiful piece and would be a compliment to any decor. It measures roughly 45 cm in height. It is covered extensively with floral patterns and a total of five elegant dragons.
