Hi,
I am looking for the age of this porcelain. The seal saying come from Qianlond ages(end of 18th century) but I am not sure of it. I picked it up at Hong Kong a long time ago.

Also, please could you tell me if the drawn flowers is a lotus (to understand the meaning of the vase)?

Thanks for your site. It was very helpful for me to understand the basic of the Chinese porcelain world.

Yes, the marks says it is a Qianlong reign vase, and in these small pictures the mark seems to be right, in style and proportions. The color of the decoration seem to be fine too.
I would think this vase would warrant closer inspection, either by hands-on inspection or high resolution pictures taken under natural lighting (including detailed partial pictures).
It is difficult to be more conclusive regarding age or authenticity with these pictures alone.
