Condition Report: Overall Condition 1 firing flaw to base rim and some sort of dirt remaining on the inside. Size: 87x53mm.

A very nicely decorated bowl with a decoration of fishes/carps and what seems to be grass and flowers.

Fish

Fish – Yu – Fish in Chinese sounds like the word for “Abundance and Affluence” so the fish symbolizes wealth. Fish shown with a lotus blossom symbolize “Year after Year may you live in Affluence”.
