Hi Guys, I'm looking at a couple of Chinese vases to buy. But I am not the most knowledgeable when it comes to Chinese antiques. The vases are part of a matching pair and I've been told they are at the very least 50 years old. If anyone knows any more about these such as there age, origin etc that would be fantastic.
All the best,
Toby

Also, the vases above are approximately 11 inches tall.

Toby would need photos of the bottom & makers marks , inside rim & inside cover also close ups of detail work, Be very careful lots of repos of Asian products

Okay, I do not have access to more informative photos so I shall not pursue this particular set, thank you for your advice!
All the best

can you get a close up picture and one of the base to see if they are hand decorated or printed ? http://www.bbc-antiques.co.uk

On the other hand, they're nice looking vases/ginger jars. If you like 'em, buy 'em. Just don't plan for a big return on your investment.
