This is another bowl I have collected over the years. It is a light green with blue dragon with his tail over the side which is I think over the wall dragon bowl. There is a mark that is very faded that you can't make out. Any idea?
You are quite right, it's "over wall dragon bowl" from mid Qing/Ching. Not like the high end ones in its kind, this one is called 'grass root dragon' for low end market. I think it's real.
Shrine thank you for the comment.
Thanks again renedijkstra so you think this is a real kangxi? Would you say it's on the high end or low end? The values are all over the place. I posted this 6 years ago and I do still have it.

bit scared about this assesment, because my second option was guanghu kitchen sink, because of the so called crosshatch and dots plating of the dragon
so i digged up some very ferocious assesments, who lingered on for a very long time between major experts
opinions
1 MEijji period abbriviated marking ( tiny minority point of view, dismissed as ludocrous)
an swatow (ming) point of view) possible but to restricted ( a bit larger minority pient of view, too restricted)
3 what remains is an guanghxu piece who got crosshatch dots in combination with a kitchen qing glazing, hugh minority point of few, but is this logical almost 90 % of the porcelain is mingyao (folksware)
so actually when the smoke and the mood got completely f,,,,,, the slight majority point of view due to the bottom glazing it is assessed at 1700till 1750, so late kangzhi to early qianlong ( although the bottom type of recessing is strange )
well i can live with that , who the f, am i, these are major players, actually i did not knew that the extension was until early qianlong , although time wise it is little spread
i am still in doubt actually , they probably are right the shining of the the rectangers
almost a sort of thin embossing at the tail of the dragon could be an early qianlong determinent, didn,t see it actually from the get the get go , because i was fixed on the glazing that,s the main indicator ( timespan difference is narrow and not so important)
actually i disagree with Shrine, IMO this not a mid Qing, dragong are boring , because they all look but the actually you got 5 mods of design, and when it might be an over the wall late kangzhi or early quinlong, over the wall plates are quite rare in this period
no dillution, good contrast , cross hatch and dots mod is taking care of, simple but quite sufficient, i think this better than average
WTF from elementary school on i still don,t know, when to use THEN or THAN, ( moron)
