BLUE WHITE ORIENTAL / CHINESE  STYLE TULIP VASE GARLIC SHAPED NECK FLORA & BIRDS 

This vase stands 28cm high, weighs 1668g (approx) and  is being sold as shown.  There are no apparent marks on the base.  It has an Oriental / Chinese style but I do not know its place of manufacture or age but I do not believe it has any significant age.  
The weight will require postage by courier and therefore the cost will vary on a per country basis. Overseas bidders please feel free to contact me for a quote for postage & packaging.  
I have included a number of photos and these probably describe the item better than I can and form part of the description. Everyone has different considerations when purchasing items and if you need any further information, please feel free to contact me and I will try to help.  The matchbox and ruler are not part of the listing, but there just to give an idea as to size. 

Condition: In a good used condition with crazing all over, some wear, discolouration, marks, spots, pitting, a small stress fracture on the base and other small manufacturing imperfections. Some staining internally that cannot be seen in use. I have taken a number of photos which, in addition to forming part of the description, are there to allow potential bidders the opportunity to make their own assessment.
Please feel free to ask any questions but please please ask through Ebay. Unfortunately, selling on Ebay generates a lot of spam and dubious emails and I now only respond to questions placed directly through Ebay. I will try to answer questions as soon as possible, but this will normally be in the evening. There are times where I may not be able to reply within 24 hours but I will reply well before the listing ends.

Postage
I am always happy to combine postage but please contact me before paying to arrange the most suitable method. Unless I am offering free postage I tend to charge P&P at Cost plus 15-20% to cover packaging materials & other charges. Items under 1kg and fitinto a box 35x25x16cm or 45x32x8cm will be sent by Royal Mail for which I will be charging £3.40. Larger or heavier items will be sent by courier. Up to 1kg £3.50, up to 2kg £4.70 , up to 5kg £6.50 and up to 10kg £9 (there are some exceptions to this for large items). If the items have a value of over £50 and upto £100 an additional £2.22 may be added for insurance and signature. There may also be a surcharge for delivery to the Islands and Highlands. I will still happily send an item by any of the Royal Mail services if you prefer (Standard,Confirmed,Special Delivery) so please just let me know and I will provide a quote.
I am always happy for collection in person or for a buyer to arrange their own courier which may be cheaper for the winning bidder. Hermes is preferred for UK collection as we have an exceptionally good delivery man.

International items under 2kg will still be sent via Royal Mail, in fact it is now cheaper to sendsome items to Australia than it is to the UK when using Royal Mail. I will quite happily post most itemsoverseas but if I have not already provided international prices please ask me for postage costs beforebidding.
I will not post to Italy, Some of the Middle East, South America or Africa (Except South Africa). International items sent by courier will require a contact telephone number.


PackingI pack to ensure the item arrives with you undamaged. If you have specific packing instructions please contact me before paying as this may have an impact on the price as both an increase in weight or size can increase the cost of delivery.
I do try to recycle boxes and other materials wherever possible and will sometimes use newspaper forpadding out, if it does not have any impact on the cost of postage.

Buy it nowI quite often get asked for a "Buy it now" price. I am quite happy to consider a buy it now offer (greater than the starting bid), unless there has been a bid on the item, in which case I would have to decline to be fair to the bidders.
