Thanks. I normally take photos with my camera. This group was taken with my phone and focusing on the detail can be difficult.

I am happy to know this jar is what you say it is. I am confident it its age as well.

I have seen those shouldered jars around with the little lion on the pot lid, although all of them seem to have a bit of damage with that old yellow glue that stands out so much.

Usually items with this type of decoration are attributed to the Jiaqing/Daoguang reigns, but the glazed neck seems to point to later in the Qing dynasty (Guangxu?). Jars usually have unglazed shoulders and necks. Those that are glazed were mostly late Qing or later.
This should still be Qing, I believe, judging from the pictures.


BTW, your pictures of the were all sufficient to see the quality and features of items clearly. I wish I would get such pictures with all queries. Would make it much easier.
