Hello sir I have a piece and I think it is rare and I want to show you it

[@susanhepburn6040]

I picked up a nice pretty Asian blue & white slender vase about 7" tall. It's in a shape I associate with Arita/Fukugawa but no markings on the base & without a defined separate "foot". Beautiful pure white glossy porcelain with little groups of landscape oriental features & plenty of white open spaces. What's striking is the color of the blue under the glaze - its more of a pastel grayish-blue, which I think is prettier than the strong cobalt blues. It might be Chinese or Japanese ware but the pure white delicate quality of the porcelain makes me think it could be something like Hirado & it's keeping me guessing. The overall effect is of a soft gray-blue water color on a bright white background

Thanks for sharing your experience of Chinese antique porcelain. 80% of these examples are older copies-made during Qing-copy Ming, Republic time copy Qing and Ming. Usually, the foot mark was done by one or two people, his handwriting is consistent. From the handwriting, many of the ChengHua pieces are copies made in Qing and/or early Republic period-high time in antique collection. More and more Chinese and Taiwanese scholars make KZbin videos teach how to identify real and copies of antique Chinese work of art. a few have English subtitle. very interesting and educational.

I am thankful master porcelain antigue are can see....

[@YushangChen]

It's really helpful, but I think the "Xuande" mark bowl at 5:25 is an authentic one but not the 16th century, only my own personal opinion, thanks!

[@ABWeaver]

Awesome. Thank you. Those photos that I sent you are a joke now that I see this. I'll keep trying.

[@PeterCombs]

Its a learning curve, but stick to it! It is a lot of fun, also look into buying some books and build a good library. We have several a pages of good ones we recommend on the Bidamount site, you can find the links on the "Navigator " page bidamount.com/bidamount-asian-art-antiques-site-guide in the THE SHOP section.

I am proud that Muslims contribute into the history of the Chinese porcelain, I'm a Muslim and I'm proud of it, I ask God for Peter to become a Muslim as well, and we meet in heaven all together.

I have a question about Chinese Marks on Porcelain Figurine that are not colored, rather they appear to be inbedded into the porcelain fro the Kangxi Emperor reign period. Do you have a comment or two on that.

Great videos! I just wanted to point out the correct pronunciation of "xuande" would be more like "shuenn-de" :)

[@PeterCombs]

you are right on that, you and my wife who lived in China and speaks the language is forever trying to get my pronunciation corrected, I'll keep trying. I can massacre French just as well!

[@hoomalumalu]

I have a small dish that I bought in Borneo in 1974, they swore it was Ming and I never believed it, however, I do think it is old. Is there anywhere on line that does appraisals? I'm interested in the age more than the value.

[@PeterCombs]

Visit OUR Website, BIdamount.com. And click the link for the Identification Assistant , best peter

[@noradaniels470]

What about pieces with no mark on the bottom?

[@PeterCombs]

Marks are fairly meaningless as far as dating an item goes, unless the rest of the piece can tell you how old it is by it's aspects. So never worry about Marks when it comes to dating and identifying an piece. Best Peter

[@noradaniels470]

@@PeterCombs thank you. I have a bowl with no marks.

[@pabloruiz8597]

At 7:53. This is not a Jiajing porcelain but a Wanli porcelain, a later Ming Emperor from the late 1500s and early 1600s. Notice the seal does not have 嘉靖 but 萬曆. Here I would also suspect that this was a fake Wanli porcelain. The characters for Wanli, 萬曆, are written terribly, likely by someone who was not fluent in Chinese. Even the Ming character, 明, has an extra stroke where it doesn't belong. With written Chinese you need to get the details very right and only fluent Chinese writers know this.

[@pabloruiz8597]

At 4:02. What if the characters on the seal at the bottom are wrongly written? Here the 製 character is so sloppily done--lots of missing and messed up strokes--that it would give me pause about the authenticity of this. This may have been a fake Chenghua bowl because the 製 is not properly written. Someone who was fluent in Chinese--like the actual maker of the bowl--would've gotten this just right.

[@skyetrue-hagenstein1778]

I was wondering if the piece you mentioned was a bird feeder was in fact a chopstick holder.

[@PeterCombs]

+Skye True-Hagenstein hi, no it's actually a birdfeeder. They have made them steadily right up until today. If you look at the picture, the wood piece attached to it for affixing it to a bird cage. If you need help with something you've inherited, get in touch with ys through the "Contact Us' tab on the Bidamount.com home page, our email address and phone numbers are there.

[@pabloruiz8597]

At 4:15. Again, this would give me pause that this was an authentic Zhengde bowl (pronounced "jung-duh"). The 年 character is very incorrectly written. It's not even stylistic Chinese--the wrong stroke is in the very wrong place. No Chinese person would get such a simple character like 年 so wrong.

Can you please sent me a email só i cud sent you some pictures please??thank you very much

[@pabloruiz8597]

Wonderful analysis. Learned a lot about Ming porcelains. But your Chinese pronunciation is not good. Xuande is pronounced "shoe-on-duh." The first seven porcelains you presented have at the bottom 大明宣德年製 or "da ming shoe-un-duh nee-and jer." It means, as far as I can tell (I may be wrong about the "yearly mark" bit since this is classical Chinese), "Yearly mark of the Xuande Emperor of the Great Ming." But you should study a bit of Chinese to at least get the imperial reign names right.
