Chinese Ming Dynasty Period, Blue & white scrolling floral high stem porcelain bowl. Potted with a shallow body, has an open mouth, slight flaring, deep arced body, and raised on small footed ring base with slight tall and concave. This bowl in blue and white fine color, is an excellent object with delicate flower blooms, foliage and scrolling interlocking tendril. A characteristic heaped and piled effect, the under glaze grayish-blue concentrates in certain areas, bubbling through the surface of the glaze and turning a deep blue-black. This inadvertently gave texture, energy, and shading to the design.

The underside rim is unglazed, revealed the pale-creme ground revealed and dark grayish brown spotted firing marks and edge-cut foot rim.
