i wonder what the function is for this small pot measured 4.5 height? also, is this a genuine kangxi piece?

Hi Lee,

Here's the closest thing I can find to a pattern match (link). This is a Kangxi-period (1662-1722) minyao floral jar with a repaired lid from a reputable dealer in Belgium. Measures about 4.5 inches high by 3.6 inches across the mouth. Your piece, which looks a bit like a hair receiver, is compatible to Kangxi wares in the pattern and mark, but I believe the lack of small kiln flaws in the glaze makes it look much newer.

Best regards,

Bill H.
