Subject:Chinese dish. How old ?

Unfortunately this big Chinese porcelain dish has no marks on the bottom. So how old is it ? Can you tell me more about it ?

Can't tell much without a photo of back side.

Many thanks for your answer. Not much to see on the back.

The decorative style of your basin is consistent with late Qing-early Republic enameling. Anything for export to the West probably would have had a "CHINA" mark beginning in 1891. However, this basin has a Daoist motif of the "Three Star Gods" (Fu, Lu & Shou), so could have been made before 1891 or for Chinese consumption or export to Southeast Asia.

Here's an auction result for two such basins, which will give you an idea of value. Keep in mind, that hammer prices tend to fluctuate widely, depending on the principal iconography in the motif, with longevity themes being especially popular.
