    I won this piece on an ebay auction. It's kind of interesting - definitely has some age and condition issues. I believe there were three figures and the one in the middle was broken off and removed.

      nice bowls by the way , wanli , batavia , tongzhi, amsterdam bont , the bencharong is strange
    6. ho2cultcha ho2cultcha, 3 years ago
      the bencharong are new. i keep finding them, so i collect them. even the new ones sell pretty well from what i've seen.
    7. apostata apostata, 3 years ago
      i remembed vaguely , you got some very good bencharang,and your wanli is better than average rather nice, the bencharong in the picture lets say cute

      anything sells nowadays , i sold some republic period stuff , signed daoguang , and xianfeng, i explicitly announced it was republic period , it sold like hot cakes, actually i felt a bit guilty

      i know! i've been watching sales and it looks nice, it sells high regardless of when it was made. i'm seeing the same thing across the board in ceramics - not just Asian.
