大明 Military campaign, Ming dynasty (1368-1644) bowl with 3 leaping horse
大明 There are two characters at the bottom . Translated by Dr. Qing Chang, PhD as "Second camp". Second camp could be explained by by being a part of equipment of the stationary base of Han Chinese Army 汉族. The mark inside the bowl is not a character, but probably the mark of the production. Very rare and unusual early Ming dynasty, decorated with 3 leaping horses signed by the artist at the bottom. Weight: 9 oz. = 230 g. Upper diameter: 5.5 in. = 14 cm. Base diameter: 2.25 in. = 5.5 cm. Condition: there is a crack about 14 cm long across the side wall, although the bowl was reassembled from fragments; it retains its beauty and rarity. Low Estimate: 2000; High Estimate: 10000; Genuine Original: Yes
