[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9587952, member: 2844"]Yes it is Korean celadon ware. Celadon refers to the pale green colour. The shape is called a double gourd vase. Your vase has 'durumis' or red-crowned cranes. The durumi is one of the national symbols of Korea. It stands for purity, peace and longevity. I can't help you with the age, similar vases are still made. I also don't know of a resource for Korean porcelain maker's marks. Yes, it is handpainted. I can't access the link you posted, but that doesn't matter if the vase and the mark are different.[/QUOTE]
