i dont think it's like vintage.. i got it 5 years ago in tucson from a chinaman.. couldn't make much out about it's history except he had it.. i paid like $10 wholesale.... So i know it's worth at least 20 on any day... maybe 40. . . was hoping to have better action on it... it is real jade... it's flaws were developed from accidentally dropping it.. so one corner is chipped but barely visible...
