without good photographs it's hard to say much of anything about your vase, but it may be that it is stamped or painted on the base with a Chinese imperial reign period from the Ming or Qing dynasties. the problem is that many later vessels bear earlier reign marks, so you still need to do some stylistic analysis to figure out when your object was made. hence the need for photos. marks by themselves almost never validate a piece.
