old blue and white ginger jar(?)/ vase(?)

by Michael

I have pictures of this vase that belonged to my great grandmother and do not know much beyond that. 3 out of 4 of the marks at the bottom seem to be from the early 1900's. Any assistance in finding more of its history and value would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
If the color of the mark in reality is the same as on the picture, then this almost surely is a 20th century item, and not early republic.

I would suggest you take pictures under daylight, perhaps near a window, to allow for natural colors. Closeups of the brown decoration and the people's faces, as well as the bottom would be necessary to come to any conclusions.
