Not much to say my girl friend bought this for us because she thought it looked very beautiful. It has the Qian long seal on the bottom in blue all of the flowers on the vase are raised. Its about 5 inches tall.

Red Flower Vase marked Qian Long part 3

Dave,
This image does not provide any information. Best would be if the resolution could be like this example: http://gallery.chinese-antique-porcelain.com/qingdai_19th36.html
(I know it isn't easy, I have still difficulties photographing like this after years!)

If possible don't use a flash because it will highlight the portion next to the light. Depending on your location it might be easier outside or near a window.

The point is to obtain pictures as those in the example so that even brush strokes and any imperfections or age signs become visible. The bottom picture seems to be more successful. although resolution isnt't that good yet.
