Lori like 20,000 object oh you should remember that now I know you wouldn't of course know what you do have a great memory well I have a good mind that's what guys are not great but I gotta say the brain not bad so I acquired that I would say I had three pieces I paid about thirty for the three the last year's piece you raise it 300 I don't expect that for that I know it's a tea caddy why do you know what the Tcat because I did research for that I think it's a red tea caddy it's a snuff foam so you put tea in it I don't you just work confident and then I asked it again yeah then you're back I don't put tea in it but maybe somebody else would do you think it's a tea caddy now I'm wondering what I thought it was at the first answer you think is the right answer circle that one people also having many years of Penn State many years the state university of new york and other universities let me tell you the answer is always be okay and he says always all the professors get together B is the answer B this particular piece is indeed a tea caddy okay now where is the cork that was here I don't have a clue go see see that okay this is the correct top that's why I was staring at it and I was looking for my glasses right the top here it is the correct stopper but it once had cork around it so a little bit of glue and then the cork around it and then it would sit like that because like this all the air is gonna come out and that teas not going to be as good definitely okay so that's what you look at it but that's over time now on the bottom we have a pretty significant mark very traditional very well known it is somewhat faded but this is a quaint long mark that is a Chinese mark a particular mark of a particular dynasty okay okay the Emperor's so how old you think this piece is this piece dates between 1622 and 1912 that's a long reign it's a wide range this piece dates if you want to make the range a little bit smaller during the Orientalist period or between 1875 and 1900 okay that's what I'm looking at blue white Canton wear style porcelain so a couple things are happening it's porcelain iron at a high temperature it's blue and white that means the porcelains of relatively high quality that's the purity of the white and the blue is cold plays okay so now what you have is Canton we're out of the port of Canton right all of the blue white China would get on ships and they would use it for ballast or basically for weight in the ships right so those particular pieces will not only hold grain or other storage there would be storage pieces they would also in fact be used to weight the ships value on this piece which states to again the latter part of the 19th century when you're seeing a lot of pieces being imported into the United States and into western areas from China value on this particular piece about $200 that works nice piece how'd you acquire it the through Stuart goodwill wonderful - beautiful piece thank you it's in gorgeous conditions and condition is - antiques what location is the real estate it's gotta be in good shape when you're looking at pieces that have multiple parts like a lid and a bottom you want to look at it you want to see that the color is the same you want to look for similar decorative elements for example these little decorations here and here are the same if it doesn't look the same then remember that these lids could easily be changed out it's not unusual that the cork would be lost from the from the bottom of the stopper but again on the top you want to look for the decoration that's really important for value look for the color - if it's a light blue a light blue or dark blue a dark blue thanks very much thank you
