    Can anyone give me any information on this oriental brass bowl? I found it over 10 years ago and would like to know its background and if I decide to sale it what would this be worth? thank you so much for any help.

      That's a Chinese reign mark.
      Ming Dynasty.
      Hsuan-Te or Xuande.
      1426 - 1435.

      Believe it or Not?
      Only an expert could tell.
      Something that old should have more patination, I suppose?

      Thank you for responding to my post, Would you have any Idea on how to get an expert to give me a honest appraisal? I live in Prescott az and the local appraisers don't seem to have any information. I would like to know if you can lead me in right direction in seeking the correct information, once again, many thanks

      Hi, I'm in Sydney, Australia. I'd email the pictures and details you have to a reputable auction house in Phoenix. There are a couple of auction houses in Prescott too. Ask their opinion and feel your way. Only an expert in Asian wares will be able to advise you. Then there's LA.
