My 18th Century Imperial Chinese Umbrella Stands Worth More Than Yours!!!!

Posted on June 18, 2010 by Eliwagar1

Exquisite Chinese Vase

Sometimes we take things for granted. It’s not really our fault most of the time, we are just not aware of how precious and rare some things are. For instance their was an extremely great find in the antique vase world just recently, that really drives this point home.

Vase used as an umbrella stand in spare room is a 270-year-old Chinese masterpiece worth £500,000!!!!!!!!!!

Slightly cracked and stained, an exquisite 18th century Chinese vase was found in an elderly British couple’s spare room by an astonished art dealer. The elderly couple had been using the vase to store umbrella’s. Given as a gift to the couple, it is estimated at 500,000 pounds, or if your on my side of the pond that’s $739,750.

That’s quite a find for an old umbrella stand. The couple have had the vase for 50 years and never knew it had any value to it what-so-ever, accept as a place to hold their junk when they were in no need of it.

The vase itself is a blue and white piece that was almost certainly made for the Emperor Qianlong in about 1740. The detailed antique Chinese vase shows a landscape of mountains and trees with a single house. The upper body has also been marked in Chinese “precious thing” and bears the emperors imperial reign mark. Without a doubt the quality of the painting is of the highest caliber. Unfortunately because of the condition of the antique vase it’s value has decreased significantly, and is thought in mint condition to be worth double the amount in it’s current state. On top of this, it may have once belonged to the family of Florence Nightingale, adding even more history and no doubt value to the vase.

So what’s the gist of this story… Every vase used to store umbrella’s is a priceless Chinese artifact! Uhmmm, not quite, but it certainly isn’t the first time this has happened. How about…

As we look at our lives and we see the friends, family, experiences, and cherished treasures we’ve gained along the way, we make an effort to really realize just why we treasure them so much, the stories we’ve made with them, and how much they really do mean to us.

Now go check out some cool vases at Amazon Vase Deals and Bellacor and search their vase section.
