Chinese Famille Rose Porcelain Vase with Red Seal Mark

This is likely the base of a Chinese porcelain vase, decorated in the Famille Rose palette. The visible portion shows the unglazed foot rim, which is a light brown, earthy tone, indicating a natural clay body. The glazed interior of the foot is a pale, light blue-green, possibly celadon or light robin's egg blue, with some minor speckling and faint discoloration, suggesting age or use. At the center of the base, there is a distinct red seal mark, characteristic of traditional Chinese porcelain. The mark appears to be rectangular, with faded but discernible Chinese characters or symbols within, possibly indicating a dynasty, reign, or maker's mark. The primary visible decoration on the exterior sides features vibrant green leaves and pink-red floral or fruit elements, consistent with Famille Rose enamels which are known for their opaque pink and carmine glazes. The painting style appears organic and detailed, though only a small section is visible. The craftsmanship suggests a hand-painted piece, typical of fine Chinese porcelain. The overall condition shows some grime and slight wear on the unglazed foot rim, consistent with handling over time. The glazed surfaces appear largely intact, though the pale base shows minor smudges or staining. Based on the style of decoration and the presence of a seal mark, this piece likely dates from the late 19th to mid-20th century, though further examination of the mark and overall form would be necessary for a precise dating. The quality of the porcelain and decorative work suggests a piece of moderate to good craftsmanship.
