Hi Nana

Sorry but your vase is not ming but rather a very ordinary piece made in China from around 1900-1940. They are quite common and turn up frequently on this site. They are characterized by a crackle glaze and the brown/copper bands and distinctive markings on the base. The decoration is usually that of warriors in battle. Value wise they are not popular so enjoy it as it stands.
