I have shown this vase on the forum before but have some additional questions. i purchased it at an estate sale. Most have seemed to agree that is early Republic Period. Some experts disagree though. Bonhams & Butterfields, Sotheby's, and Skinner all think it is a Republic Period piece and not particularly valuable. Some other reputable firms think it is genuine Jiaqing mark and period and worth a fortune. Any thoughts on its age or period here?
