What does this mean?

Dear Paul,

Thank you for your request. This is a small vase made out of brass and decorated with a sculptured three-dimensional dragon who entwine his long body around the vase. Also, there is a wooden stand and the measurements are 10 inches high and 5 inches at the widest point. This vase is a modern reproduction or designed in the style of traditional Chinese art. It is made in the second half of the 20th century for decorative purposes.
An estimation would be between 10 and 40 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
