What does this mean?

This is an antique, later 19th century, porcelain Qing Guangxu 100 Butterfly bowl from China. It is in a quatrefoil form. The surface decoration is not inlaid; it is hand applied enamel on to the surface of the white glaze. This is unsigned/unmarked. In China, the symbolism of the butterfly is bliss and conjugal joy. This estimate does not serve as an authentication of age and origin. The estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail 'asking prices' can be higher and vary.
