19th century? Chinese vase. Very old...Old yellow label on bottom states "Owned by Henry Harper mid 1800s.Beneath the label is a Chinese mark(picture 4) It has an old glaze with some brown staining? It stands about 8 inches tall. Look forward to opinions and comments. Thanks

I think it sure looks good for that time period. I think there were many many of these types of jars made for a long period. Qing era ?
that doesnt look like a Chinese marking?
it's a ginger jar. nice one too!
Thanks everybody. I welcome more comments and opinions.
Old, yes, very! RER
These pots were made from the late Ming Dynasty to the Republic, early 20th Century and were widely exported as they contained foodstuffs. The style is virtually unchanged through the ages. Although usually called ginger jars they more often held preserves like Chinese salted vegetables but ginger too. Yours has age but difficult to place, probably somewhere in the Qing Dynasty during the 19th Century. The mark on the base is not a character, maybe a symbol or maker's logo.
well i got no clue what happened here, because it is not the normal CANTON ware, because they are houses or literati over the bridge scenes
there are under the roof scenes which are stole from the mid EDO japanese scenes
but something real strange happends
the mosst left from the first 4 persons , lets SAYwithin the ting of barbwire is maybe an immortale REALLY STRANGE
i ran it in pinyin and i ran it in kanji , it is IMO not a numeral or a batching number ( is allocation PLACE in a ship )
It is hard to define because the strip at the kneck of the pot appears 19 century and also in the qianlong period late 18 centery but more refined
imo it is MINYAO WARE people ware or hilbilly ware , i am totale guessing here , but it lacks finesse in the horizontal strokes of the rimplingof the water also , so lets guess DAOGUANG PERIOD - EXPORT WARE
don,t let it discourage you , because at least it is very atypical, interesting
