    This is about 13 inches tall to the top of the finial. I will probably sell this locally, and wonder how old it is and if it has any more than decorative value. Thanks.

    The inscription is (part? Can't see the whole thing,) of a poem by Wang Wei. I can't tell you anything about the value of the piece.

    These jars are usually early republic pieces
