YuehanHao Posted May 8, 2009 at 12:01 AM Report Posted May 8, 2009 at 12:01 AM I am lousy at this, but until someone else corrects me, I am guessing the rightmost character on the vase is 風 (wind) and that its neighbor is 雨 (rain). Unfortunately, my luck's out after that. But wait, my 太太 just got home. She says the last two are 歸 (return) and 牧 (herd). So she says it's something like "Returning from herding in wind and rain." I can't trouble her with the signature, but there you are for the 4-character phrase. 約翰好 Quote
