I realize this is a duplicate. If I knew how to remove the other entry, I would. Please bear with me here. I inherited this Nippon Handpainted vase from an avid collector of antiques during the Great Depression. Can anyone help me describe it and place a value on it? I had thought to sell it on eBay. Any help would be appreciated.
I figured out how to enlarge the picture, and it looks like J. Rivkin, done very shaky. I will take more pictures in better light if it will help. Thank you so much. This money goes toward the cabins we are building on 40 acres for veterans to live their lives in peace and comfort and safety. I hate to spend a huge amount to get it appraised, just to learn it’s worth $20 or so. thanks again

thank you for looking at the Pickard vase. I found a signature of it and attempted to add pictures showing the size of the mark and the signature. I have either flooded the inbox of Kovels with multiple messages, which I apologize for, or failed miserably. Am waiting to see if the pictures appear before trying again. The signature is not on the bottom, as it appeared to be on a lot of them on Google, but on the side. It is handwritten with a paintbrush, which is not easy to do, I guess. It seems to be J. M (or R) ic H or (K) followed by three or four letters. I had decided it was a clover pattern, due to the honeycomb of the gold on the green band, and the three and four leaf clover appearing flower things. I do appreciate your help.
