    I'm researching this moon vase and wonder if anyone can tell me anything about it? I'm wondering if it is Chinese, and when it might date to. No mark on the underside. It measures 14 inches high. Thank you! ... Dave

    Thank you! Do you have any idea what animal is represented by the handles? My colleague thought maybe a gecko or salamander.
