Peach-bloom glaze was very difficult to manage.

There have been a few discussions on this message board. Take a look at the piece posted at the link.

Do you think your piece has splashes of colors rather than a peach-bloom basic glaze with some green specks?

The base of your piece, the long unglazed area to fit within a stand, is not typical of pieces with such refined glazing as peach bloom and the varying copper-based red glazes.

An internet search may turn up a very few genuine peach-bloom pieces for you to look at. They were generally items for the scholar's table.

The peach-bloom effect was very difficult to fire, and modern imitations do not have the subtle beauty of the rare genuine pieces.

You would learn more about your piece by taking it to a museum or auction-house expert for a hands-on examination. Photos posted on forums such as this can be quite inadequate.
