This is a magnificent copper piece. It stands approx. 13" tall, 5 3/4" across the mouth and weights approx. 8 lbs. The patina is beautiful! There are birds perched on branches in relief. No ID marks that I can find and I can’t find any web site identifying this piece. If you can help, please do so.
Thank you!

I have a large plant pot that is similar to yours it has birds on it and mine is not on a stand. When researching mine I found another on the net that was antique chinese it was signed and valued at $235. I also received a flyer today from a high end auction house that shows a urn like yours and says “Museum quality oriental Bronze urn w birds and turtles 24” high" the picture in the flyer looks like yours you might be able to pull this up josephs gallery St. Petersburg Fl. Auction. Yours looks like a beauty and should bring a good price. You can pull it up at www josephsgallery Hope this helps. Here is mine as you can see it is short and stout the birds did not show up real well but you can see the similaritys. Oriental bronze or copper with brass.

Just so you know, all I can see in the pictures is the wide spot in the middle. Do you have any pictures of the entire vase? Top and bottom too.
