Dear Terry,
Thank you for choosing Mearto for your online appraisal.
Based on the images and available information, this item is:
It appears to be a late variation of the forward-facing dragon found on blue and white ceramics developed from the Yuan period (1271-1368). The inspiration for such an unusually portrayed dragon probably originated from Southern Song (1127-1279) paintings. In the long history of Chinese ceramics, the Xuande period (1426-1435) is generally regarded as the highpoint of blue and white porcelain production. This was due to a combination of enthusiastic imperial patronage, technical ingenuity and the finest levels of artistry.
It seems this is a late reproduction from 19th century of such unique pieces.
Retail prices may vary.
Please contact Mearto services for further help on that. Have a very nice day!
Thank you very much. Is there anything else I need to do or provide to have Mearto try and sell my item?
