Description

I found this beautiful piece at a flee market and picked it up because it's beautiful and looks old. I'm afriad I'm going to be told that I spent $6 dollars on an old mass produced item, but even so, I still think it's beautiful!

i know very little about pottery and even less about chinese or Japanese pottery since I don't read either! Would love some assistance!

hi rebeka.

Its massproduced, but that isnt a bad thing. The Chinese have been mass producing porcelain from around the 17th century. (those objects could pay your mortgage)

 

this object has been in the 20th century but has been stamped with the mark of the Qianlong emperor of the 17th century.

Take good care of it, its already worth at least a 100 dollar but in a few years might be worth ten times that. ( you can clean the charger with a damp cloth with a mild dishdetergent.)

any questions, feel free to ask

the figure inside isnt a peacock, its a phoenix battling a dragon.

The doglike figures on top of the bowl are foo dogs ( the same thing you can spot at the entrace to chinese restaurants and temples back in China)
