    Hello again. I would very much appreciate any help with identifying this white and green (celadon?) Chinese vase.

    It's 12" / 30 cm tall. Some crazing in the glaze, which I tried to capture in the last pic.

    There's an old tag that says product of China and other illegible writing.

    I found the exact same vase--like the same one item--on an eBay listing. Must be who I bought it from. But her online listing has zero info.

    Thank you!

    The mark looks relatively recent. It's Zhuanshu (seal script) or at least pretending to be, I'm only just starting to learn it, but I don't recognise the characters and wondering if they are made up. The vase is a famous chrysanthemum design which has been used since at least the Yuan, made famous again in the Ming and Kangxi.

    Yours looks like a later 20th century in the style of piece.

    I think some of the last character 瓷 did not print well or has been worn off, but seal characters are difficult to read even under the best circumstances. The phrase 中華陶瓷 simply means "Chinese pottery/porcelain."
