    Chinese New Year is around the corner. Wishing everyone a Happy Snake Year ahead!

    Likely to be a 19th Century Qing dynasty Guangxu Porcelain Bowl. Wondering if anyone could share more in depth knowledge in this area of Chinese Ceramics.

      Tianqi 1621-1627

      Looks like it some I saw but can not copy or Collector's will not allow to print!

      Xin Nian Kuai Le!

      Dragon is very nice, vow!
    5. toracat toracat, 12 years ago
      That Dragon is like my Vietnam belt buckle that is posted! We were Manchu's 5-toed Imperial Dragon! "Keep Up The Fire" We got our name from Boxer Rebellion 1900! If it is 19th century, it is still very special!! The writing looks shiny new, but Antiques Roadshow said if bottom rim is brown and not smooth, rough it may be older? just a thought!
    6. davezquanw davezquanw, 12 years ago
      I do have several concerns when conducting my own research. Any other opinions?
    7. vetraio50 vetraio50, 12 years ago
      Is the foot deep enough? The angles look correct.
    8. davezquanw davezquanw, 12 years ago
      Kindly enlighten me on that further vetraio50! =) Foot deep enough meaning?
    9. vetraio50 vetraio50, 12 years ago
      I was wondering whether the foot could be higher/ deeper?
    10. davezquanw davezquanw, 12 years ago
      After learning from some experienced guys over at Asian Art Forum and my own research, the above piece should be a modern replica. The mark does not look like it was handwritten. Bubbles seem too uniform and fine. Dragon style does not resemble typical designs of Guangxu. Surface and base too flawless.
    11. davezquanw davezquanw, 12 years ago
      Haven't been able to verify the bottom rim and material yet. Not sure of how to tell if the dirt/dust is artificial or natural. More questions appear while looking for answers. Tough.
    12. davezquanw davezquanw, 12 years ago
      The blue underglaze looks suspicious as well.
    13. Justanovice Justanovice, 12 years ago
      Whatever - still a beaut!! Thank you for your comment on my bowl.
    14. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      I agree justanovice it is beautiful. Thanks again Dave.

      I don't claim to be an expert in any way but upon research the mark on the bottom of your ceramic piece appears to be a Ming Reign Mark.
    17. davezquanw davezquanw, 11 years ago
      Pardon me Ilikeart, but this recent comment of yours makes me question your modern "Qianlong" piece (http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/100206-my-rare-ancient-treasure?in=1024) even further. You may wish to study further in the area of Chinese Mandarin language, which will reveal that the above mark states Da Qing Guang Xu Nian Zhi - Guang Xu occurs during the late Qing dynasty my friend, not Ming dynasty. Ming comes way before Qing if that helps in your research.
    18. davezquanw davezquanw, 11 years ago
      Anyway, I do not think that the above is genuine. However, I aim to study drawing styles, pigments, glaze, bubbles and types of marks instead of promoting a piece with generic comments (that can be easily found on wikipedia) which does not add credibility to a piece in question. =)
    19. apostata apostata, 3 years ago
      ok dave we do it the other way how about the cross hatch and dots on the dragon and how about the glazing on the bottom
    20. apostata apostata, 3 years ago
      have you asked bill or anthony about this on AAF
