[QUOTE="Potteryplease, post: 9870021, member: 16407"]I found this 10" (26 cm) 'mirror black' porcelain vase at my local antique mall. The seller has numerous other Chinese porcelain pieces, including some expensive ones, but this piece must have been very recently added, since I check his space most times I'm in there and had never seen it before. As you can see, there's a note on the bottom reading "Chinese 19th C Monochrome Mirror Black Bottle Neck Porcelain Vase 325." It sure doesn't look like 100+ years of wear on the foot rim, and if that ID were correct, why would he sell it for $15? Thank you for any comments.
