The vase is left from my grand-grand father could you check whether it is from Qianlong dynasty.

It more likely is a late Qing or 20th century Republic period product. The Qianlong mark doesn't appear to conform to 18th century norms in my opinion. Also, while motifs like this were seen from the first half of the 19th century, such apocryphal marks didn't begin proliferating until the second half. Here's one in a different shape but with similar decoration which I believe may be contemporary with yours.

Based on your expert opinion. Does it worth some values ?

Mine has some small restored chips on the upper rim but still was worth almost US$400 when I bought it eight years ago from a European dealer, It probably has appreciated a little by now but not more than two or three hundred dollars I'd think.

The value of yours also is contingent on condition and scarcity of the pattern. Most prices for these pieces depend in great part on what Mainland Chinese buyers are willing to pay at any given time, a factor I gave up trying to predict long ago. You might wish to browse completed eBay auctions to see if you can spot something like yours that has sold recently.

Good luck,

Bill H.
