Hi Kelly,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This pitcher was made in the style of the Qianlung period but is not actually that old; it's early 20th Century, made in a very Western form and made for the export market.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
A Chinese export blue and white porcelain pitcher
Made in the Qianlong style, early 20th Century
With exaggerated spout and handle, the bulbous body decorated allover with figures in a landscape, marked underneath with apocryphal underglaze blue characters.
14 inches tall, diameter at base 5 inches
PROVENANCE: gift of a friend
$75-125*
