looks to be of Japanese origin, Imari porcelain with transferware decoration, possibly late Edo period. The rings around center probably handpainted underglaze.

Your bowl is Japanese, probably made around 1900 or earlier, with mostly transfer, and sometimes with partial hand painted decoration. If you turn the bowl over you should be able to see "spur" marks, little indentations or extensions in the base rim. This is a sure sign of its origin.

Regards

Jim

Hi Susan,

Thanks for the information.

I have attached a couple more photos (which I tried to attach to my initial post) which may help confirm your suggestion.

Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Mark... The pic isn't too sharp, but from what I can see, the foot and the bottom does have the look appropriate for the period, late Edo. Also has handpainted underglaze design around the foot and around top rim.

Definitely not Chinese Porcelain, wrong Sumatran Cobalt Blue and wrong Kaolin White.
