This is on auction size 6 inch 15cnm high diameter 4 inch 10 cm
..is it really old ??
Hi Martin ,
it definitely has some age. Do you have a picture of the inside ?
Chris
Could it be Kangxi? The more I look, the more I think it might. That base crops up a fair bit in the 20th c, but the decoration etc looks older.
well, it's famille verte in style of kangxi, in my opinion, but I think it's more likely 19th century. Send that to the "Need Help With An Item?" section here in the site Martin, with extra photos of details, if it's kangxi it could well worth your investment:)

thank you for youre opinion luis first i need to win this auction... but once i got it i will get in touch with Peter.
Martin, under a Kangxi perspective, it is really ridiculous. My advice is to not buy it.

Giovanni
Just happened upon this one and thought I'd share it for comparrison:
Dear John,
besides some issues with the painting style etc., please ask yourself: what is doing that guy seated on the roof? Find a Kangxi item with that; is it possible?
Or that lady seated on that type of rock? With the other lady near her, that has nothing to do each other, like if she were a tree?
Kangxi decorators was painting normal scenes, generally with a meaning. They were not in need to “invent” something odd or unusual with the scope of attracting unexpert buyers. Actually, it is a scope only in the mind of the faker, while indeed it is just there where he is (luckily) failing most of the times.
Regards,
Giovanni
Thank you all sharing youre Opinions on this piece with me ...i won the auction and bougth it for under 50 dollars shipping incl. i will let you know when it arrives.

Dear Givanni i thinkthe scene is from the chinese dramatic the romance of the western chamber .
thats what wikipedia says about this play
Romance of the Western Chamber (traditional Chinese: 西廂記; simplified Chinese: 西厢记; pinyin: Xīxiāng Jì; Wade–Giles: Hsi-hsiang-chi), also translated as The Story of the Western Wing, The West Chamber, Romance of the Western Bower and similar titles, is one of the most famous Chinese dramatic works. It was written by the Yuan dynasty playwright Wang Shifu (王實甫), and set during the Tang dynasty. Known as "China's most popular love comedy,"[1] it is the story of a young couple consummating their love without parental approval, and has been seen both as a "lover's bible" and "potentially lethal," as readers were in danger of pining away under its influence.[2]
i see the scene as following a Noble woman (her hands are covered and she seems older ) is resting on a stone
next to her stands a young beauty she got the attention of a young man sitting on a wall (Monastery Wall) watching her
and he has some instrument in his hands. now lets see the first scene of the play romance of the western chamber again wikipedia
The play has twenty-one acts in five parts. It tells the story of a secret love affair between Zhang Sheng, a young scholar, and Cui Yingying, the daughter of a chief minister of the Tang court. The two first meet in a Buddhist monastery. Yingying and her mother have stopped there to rest while escorting the coffin of Yingying's father to their native town. Zhang Sheng falls in love with her immediately, but is prevented from expressing his feelings while Yingying is under her mother's watchful eye. The most he can do is express his love in a poem read aloud behind the wall of the courtyard in which Yingying is lodging.[3]i
i think thats it . i found another brushpot online showing a scene f this play and also this picture of a painting
so the wall i clearly a monastery wall
what you think ..i have solved i havent i 😉
