 ceramic items
by: peter

Hello,
I will keep it short.
1. Plate - not Chinese
2. + 3. Plates - not Chinese, possibly printed
4. "Rnging" basin - Chinese (no idea if it is antique, but there are many imitations)
5. Temple jar (Jiangjun jar) - looks fairly new
6. Kangxi mark - looks printed or stamped (quality not right in my view)
7. Flower pot - could be Chinese - not very old
8. Drum-shaped stool - imitating some Japanese painting elements, but probably modern, possibly made in China or SE Asia
9. Teapot - Chinese, printed, recent
10. Mark - right side reads: China; cannot read left side characters as they are smeared
11. This is a modern fantasy product, in my view. Colors, etc. are all not right.
