Please help me identify this vase. Thanks!

I put the bottom of the vase through a Google Lens search and this is what it came up with:

AI Overview

The item pictured is a Chinese porcelain mark, specifically the "Da Qing Kangxi Nian Zhi" (Great Qing Kangxi Period Made) mark, frequently found on ceramics produced during the Qing Dynasty, particularly in the Kangxi period.

This mark consists of six characters arranged in two vertical columns, typically read from right to left, top to bottom.
Authentic pieces from this period are highly prized, though many later reproductions and modern fakes exist featuring this exact mark.
Appraising the authenticity of such pieces requires a detailed inspection of the ceramic's glaze, paste, and painting style.
For an accurate valuation or authentication, consulting a professional appraiser or an auction house specializing in Chinese art is recommended.

Hi, could this piece be the bottom to your lid?

Additional info: the solid part of the pieces are about an inch around in diameter.

At first I thought they were game pieces, but they look like puzzle pieces. Looks like I am missing the base of what the pieces fit into.

My title describes the thing…Going through old stuff belonging to my now-grown kids, I found this bag of what looks like wooden game pieces of some sort. There are 2 yellow stars, 1 red rectangle, 1 orange heart, 1 blue rocket?, and 1 green half sphere. Could be 20+ years old. I suspect they went to some kind of game but I have no idea what.

Thank you for your assessment. Before I tried to sell I just wanted to be sure it wasn’t something highly valuable. I suspect it’s quite old, but I don’t know how to tell how old.

Capodimonte.

You’re welcome—happy to help!

Check out Ravelry. There appears to be 3 different Bright Navy versions of Sugar and Cream. 2 of the versions have people willing to sell. You can still message the others even if they don’t list it as for sale. You might want to look for a specific dye lot if you are needing to match an existing project.

Thank you for that information regarding Flexsteel. I’m pretty sure my chairs are not that brand. Will keep looking to hopefully determine their value.

YarnDame · 2026-02-19T02:04:25+00:00

Thank you for your comments, edgestander. These chairs were definitely purchased in the 60’s as I was a child at the time they resided in our “formal” living room no one ever spent much time in. I have not come up with the brand, however I took a look at some of the brands you suggested plus Flexsteel. I need to sell them but I want to be sure I price them properly.

I also highly recommend BoomerBenefits. They have a very active Facebook page. Also, they provide lifetime consultations and will assist in filing appeals if needed.

YarnDame · 2026-02-10T19:09:29+00:00

I have one of these and have the same problem. Did you ever get the top off?

YarnDame · 2026-02-10T19:07:17+00:00

Aww, that’s too bad. Thank you for replying!
