Subject:Please help Identiy chinese mark
Posted By: Tommie Sun, Nov 22, 2015 IP: 85.150.171.76

I have a Chinese porcelain vase painted with butterflies.Can anyone tell me by whom it is made and how old the vase is? The vase is 16 cm high.

The mark purports to be Guangxu (1875-1908) but the vase looks to be post-Qing transfer ware, in my opinion. A hand-painted period vase would have shown more wear than is evident, especially to the black in the pattern. Judging by the rough looking foot rim, I'd venture a guess of circa 1930 or later.

Best regards,

Bill H.
