What does this mean?

Dear Vikki,

Your pot is made in Republic period, say 1940 in China and is unfortunately in mediocre condition. Its a well made pot with imposed decoration which is more interesting for collectors. Due to the damage the pot lost a great deal of its value. A good restoration is quite expensive but will not return the original value of the pot in full. Without damage pot could fetch 300 / 400. Its not Yongzheng period although its marked that way. A lot of Chinese porcelain is marked to honor older emperor's but are actually not from this period.

Regards,

Simon Breider
