I picked this bowl up for a few dollars at an antique store. I had no idea what is was but, after over two hours of searching, I believe that I discovered what it actually is at the following website: http://www.thepirateslair.com/international-naval-china-and-tableware-of-the-world/peoples-republic-of-china-navy.html
These items sell for a few-hundred dollars on this site.
The mystery is what does this say??? I am sure that it is either the name of a ship and perhaps the regiment?
From the site:
