<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 3698144, member: 8363"]I was so excited to find this vase that was stamped Shanghai China on the bottom. It seems to have very interesting aspects. The stork and cloud patterns are raised from the surface; the glaze is mottled and has two colors - the green body and the brown rim and handles, and it looks to be hand painted and has some detail like painted feathers. Not a superior piece - probably a export piece but not without merit. The stamp on the bottom, I believe says Shanghai China, though most of it is missing. It is 6 inch high and 4 inches is diameter (roughly) at its widest point.) It doesn't not look like modern factory work to me. But I don't know, so I would appreciate any comments.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]311721[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311722[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311723[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311729[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311734[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311736[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311737[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
