INCLUDING CHINA AND RUSSIA
Offered in this sale is a green glazed antique Chinese porcelain small cup - bowl - with a six character Chenghua dynasty mark that was originally used in the 15th century. From what I understand the mark was also used by 18th century and even more recently in the 20th century so it is difficult to say for me to say with certainty which period this... comes from. It does appear to have good age to it. It measures roughly 1 3/4" tall x 2 1/2" in diameter at its widest. It has a faint subtle surface pattern of dragons. The condition looks to be very good. When I look closely at the surface with a loupe I question if perhaps it may have had some surface restoration or glazing. The porcelain has a metalic sound when tapped so it does not seem to be cracked. Please be sure to enlarge and zoom each image for a close up view of the detail and the condition and do not hesitate to send me a message if you have questions or would like additional images. I always guarantee everything that I sell to be as described. This piece is being sold without a reserve as long as there is an opening bid.
