Help with Chinese on vases


Zeppa

Recommended Posts

I just learnt that a friend has bought two vases and does not know what they are or what the Chinese handwriting on the bases means. He did not realize I know some Chinese. I'm posting the images he sent. 

I see the numbers but don't know what it means as a whole.

Many thanks for help.

I wouldn't have read it as 217! but I did think the Chinese handwriting was an interesting feature. They must be some kind of chinoiserie (I am totally ignorant mind you) but they must have been in the hands of Chinese people! Should he get it valued, I wonder.
