An elderly gentleman, who was selling the contents of his home, was the consignor of numerous items; among them, a 10 \u00be inch vase thought to be from the Yongzheng period (1723 \u2013 1735).  The vase was inspired by 15th century Ming Dynasty pottery, which was very common in the 18th century.  The creator even went so far as to include the six-character mark for the Ming Emperor Chenghua (1464 \u2013 87) on the bottom.  Originally, the vase belonged to the consignor\u2019s aunt who had spent a great deal of time in the Far East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"644\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/vase.jpg\" alt=\"Chinese vase, Yongzheng period\" class=\"wp-image-38208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/vase.jpg 644w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/vase-300x157.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 644px) 100vw, 644px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The vase carried a \u00a3100- 150 estimate and opened at what appeared to be a strong \u00a3800. Pretty quickly the bidding got intense, as one person in the room battled it out against two online bidders.  The two online bidders quickly pushed the price to \u00a380,000, and then a determined bidder in the room took it to \u00a3200,000! When the commission was added in, the new owner paid \u00a3236,000, a new record price for any work sold by the auction house \u2026 their previous record was only \u00a342,000 \u2026 guess that\u2019s why the auctioneer was really surprised.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sale of a beautiful Chinese vase stunned the crowd (and the auctioneer) at a small auction room in Suffolk, England.
