Antique vase, maybe bowl?

[Ipcress]

I tried to do some family research. My parents had them for over 60 years and they said when they received these two vases they were close to a 100 years old at that point. I have a few other pieces I will be posting as we'll. My father traveled all across the world and would receive these types of gifts before he would leave the country to come home.

If this piece was an original what would it's value be? If it's not an original what would it's value be?

Right

If you can remember the images i linked to earlier in the thread Meissen did vases like this with panels of birds and then small insects.

I like the underglaze blue mark and even though the pics aren't as clear as i'd like, i like the appearance of the paste / porcelain.

You really need this valuing at an auction house that knows what they're doing because it's potentially worth a a few thousand. This might still be a 19th century Helena Wolfsohn copy of an 18th century Meissen piece though.

If you have other pieces i'd love to see them. They could help form a bigger picture.

Just doing a bit of searching.......and this may be way out there.......but this vase sold through Christies in 2010.  It has the blue  AR underglaze mark and what struck me was the birds and especially those bugs.  Here is the write up from the listing and a screen shot of a close up.

I posted a link to that earlier Sapphire, i think


My only nagging doubt now is the quality of painting for the birds.

However, not all pieces back then were uniform

So you did!  That'll teach me to go back and read all posts rather than jumping in at the end (and do it when I'm fully awake).  Least I know I wasn't alone in seeing the similarities.
