My father bought this at a yardsale it is too heavy and the paintings seem to almost be carved so it caught my attention.

Tony Allen's "Rule 7", laid down in his recently published "Allen's Antique Porcelain - The Detection of Fakes", consigns transfer-printed Chinese porcelain to a manufacturing date of the 20th or 21st century. The stamped-on apocryphal base-mark on your small "hu" vase says "Made during the Guangxu Reign of the Great Qing Dynasty". This isn't a usual mark seen on porcelains painted by ornamentation factories that have operated for years in Hong Kong and Macao, making me think the earliest the vase might have been made would have been in China circa the 2nd quarter of the 20th century through the very early third quarter, before production was regimented under new factory markings by the PRC Government.

Best regards,

Bill H.
