    Grabbed this today. It was sold as 'Chinese' but after some digging, I think it might be Czech. Harrach perhaps? I have shone a UV light through it and the glow is only purple. It is translucent but does not fluoresce green. It is 15cm tall.

    I’m seeing nothing Chinese about it, other than the style of enamelling perhaps. It looks bohemian.
