Hello Peter. I came across this vase and just wanted to know how old you think it is. Its very nicely decorated, and I hope it was made during imperial China. Thank you very much

vase

Hello,
I'm in no position to judge imperial wares.
This said, the overall impression is that the vase looks fairly new, and I have some doubts about the color bands.
When buying such items, please be aware that loads of beautiful porcelain items like this are sold in the Far East, everywhere, and they are all new.
This does not say it is new, but it could be. The price of imperial ware, if real would be a five figure at least.
