Re: Question re Celadon Vase Strange Mark

The seal-script character on your vase or pot would read "Guan" (官 - an officer or official) in Mandarin. It was used as a marking on some Chinese ceramics during the Tang-to-Song periods, of which eras this piece appears to me not to be.

Best regards,

Bill H.
