<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 9824492, member: 37"]Thank you for the detailed response. The photos provided are also very helpful. I bought this for a few reasons, hoping to learn something in the process. First off, it was cheap <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />. All kinds of items end up in thrift stores, so you never know. Second, it bore a previous label from an antique dealer. I know that doesn't necessarily mean anything but it could be a clue. Lastly, I thought the bottom ring looked as if it could have legitimate age. It is the only unglazed part and I took the brown coloration to be age related. I see so many modern Chinese porcelain pieces that are clearly new and this one looked a bit different. </p><p><br /></p><p>Whether or not I buy any more Chinese ceramics in the future remains to be seen. I do always look twice if I come across something. Hopefully, I am gaining some knowledge and can spot a good find if I run across one. Also, hopefully, this exchange has been helpful to others who read this board. Afterall, this is why we are all here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
