Please tell us a little about this vase. Where did you get it? What do you know about it? And what do you need?

  • Good question! 2

As usual on a piece like this, your vase is decorated with classical Chinese poetry: two verses by the Song poet 王安石 Wang Anshi and one by the Qing poet 陈维崧 Chen Weisong.

 

Translating poetry is quite a skill, and time-consuming even if I could do it. But a translation app may give you a sense of these poems.

You might also be able to find English translations of these on the web.
