Large 19th C Chinese Double Happiness Jar

This jar is 14 inches tall 9 inches wide and weighs about 9 pounds. The pattern repeats on all four sides. This is also known as a wedding jar or celebration jar. They were given as a blessing. These are currently made to the present time. Most you see online are modern. This one is legitimate Qing dynasty 19th Century made about 1850. You can tell by the quality of the cobalt, the thickness ,the type of glaze ,style of foot rim and nicely done reign mark. This mark is most like the emperor Xianfeng and this seems like mark and period. 1831 to 1861. Also I had a major auction house verify the 19th Century date. Issues: some minor chips to the foot rim but they are very old obviously. There is a star crack in the bottom which you can''t really see. It''s not huge. There are several hairlines at the mouth into the neck. I took a picture of the longest which starts into the shoulder. The others are small. No other flaws. Quite desirable for the size but priced with flaws in mind.
