Dear Forum

I have this beautiful urn , and I have to say never seen all together with the cup .
Anyone can translate to me who was in the urn ? How old , and when this has been made?

Many thanks

Sincerely

Dear I Nagy
Thank you so much for spending time to answer me. As I know,imperial kiln made porcelain doesn't mean that this was made for the emperor , I think it's should be better quality for the mark,but maybe for a member of the court? Unknown name means that unfamiliar for you, or doesn't even says that who been in it ? If this porcelain made in the imperial kiln, do you think is that something good stuff ,or not something important piece? As I have never seen this complete piece since I collect, and research Chinese artworks, about 15year, I have found one at gotheborg.com , but incompletely , they describe it wrong because they said it is a jar , but because they have only the bottom ( cup holder) part, but because the top of the porcelain narrows as it rises , for the size of the cap to hold it in ! Gotheborg.com item number is, 1002 jar 7 cm

I have another porcelain urn same as this , I have been posted same time, but because I needed to resize it unfortunately unseeable , but it is required more pictures to show everything I think it's important, that's why I'm going to post as a reply and attach my Google drive to show it to you, if you please take a look I am much appreciated!


Many thanks
Kings Regards
John
