Wether it has just rolled out of jingdezhen or not it is still a nice vase,i would guess early 20th cent.I think people put too much faith in marks its the quality of the item that should count,Yours has a nice landscape scene.Some of the 20th cent pieces are now fetching good money in Christies,Sotherby and Bonhams sales,you can check out the sales results on the web from London Amsterdam and New York.I am lucky to live in an old country England our sailors brought tons of the stuff back,i went to a sale of the contents of a large house owned by an ex sea captain you should have seen the porcelain,and this was just a small provincal coastal town.There is still alot of good items out there the average Antique dealer will tell me they dont buy Chinese because they dont know anythig about it.So keep your eyes out you only have to find one good piece!!
