    I may be wrong, but the unfinished appearance of the base makes me think this is a recent reproduction. The Chinese seem to be mass producing all sorts of older styles. Perhaps you should not put much stock in the mark even if identified.

    The bottom of the vase appears to be covered with pitch,The repaired base was probably from a bad casting and a piece was added for the repair.
