Is this Vase Worth Anything?

Question: is this Vase worth anything? Thank you.

RD Langer Answers: Senada, the mark appears to be of the Republic period. (around 1940) I would estimate a value of around $150. However, I suggest you e-mail Dessa Goddard at Bonhams, and see if she has a different view. There isa mark on the outside of the bowl, with a Chinese poem, which may add some value.

Great list of books on appraising your objects.
