Hello again, Chinese this time, the marks, I think, are for the Ch'eng Hua period (1465-1487) except the vase is actually around 1900-20, I've a couple myself, so not Ming dynasty  :thd:   although I could be wrong

damn it Keith, how do you know so much lol.  Oriental stuff is really difficult to learn about I am finding, scouring through pages of symbols makes me crosseyed and they all start to look the same after a while lol.  Thanks honey, you are a gem as always

Don't know much at all just have lots of books and googly eyes  :czy: looking at all the characters,Japanese is easier than Chinese, in my opinion, these are mine, the big one is two foot tall and the cheapest!
