This is a striking large blue and white porcelain bowl crafted in the 1980s, made in the style of the Ming Dynasty “Xuande” period (宣德, 1426–1435). The base features the mark “大明宣德年制” (“Made in the Xuande period of the Great Ming”), indicating its homage to classic Chinese porcelain traditions.
The bowl is decorated with intricate underglaze blue floral motifs around the body, and a rare incised dragon motif (“暗刻龙纹”) subtly integrated into the design, visible upon close inspection under light. A beautifully proportioned piece, it makes an excellent collector’s item or a decorative display bowl.
