[QUOTE="916Bulldogs123, post: 9853877, member: 75"]I was just scrolling the Ailes like I do about three times a week at this store. On the row with the dishes and glassware i spotted this little 5 1/4" shallow bowl for .49 cents. I knew it was Chinese and looked very old and beat up a little. Is heavily age cracked and has a couple chips on the edge. But for less than a dollar what the heck. One of the well noted Chinese experts on a FB group I belong to gave this information. It is late Ming Wanli Zhangzhou ware. Made in Southern Chine for export to S.E. Asia. So, i had to look it up and Wanli was emperor from 1572 to 1620. Does this bowl look 400 years old?
