Hi
Is this the real thing? It looks almost brand new, it is realy beautiful. It is 27 cmm hight.
Is it a copy?

The base, with its glaze rippled up unevenly around the inside of the foot, along with its perfectly flaw-free surface elsewhere, would seem to indicate this is a contemporary product of a porcelain ornamentation factory somewhere in China or another locale in Asia. So far as I know, this phenomenon results from the base being re-glazed and re-fired to accommodate application of its faux mark.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Thank you very much for reply :)
I have compared it with a blue and white plate that I have from the 1800, it looks almost the same. The inside glazing is very even, it look better in real life not in the pictures.
