This is a very nice antique Chinese porcelain dish, dating back to the early 17th century and made for the Japanese market, Kosometsuke. The dish features a beautiful underglaze blue decoration with a central motif of 4 oxes, Above them is a 4 line calligraphy in Chinese characters. With thanks to a friend we have translated it as following:

一色毛纯不点斑,
曾乘老子入幽关。
威猛雄壮声惊众,
豆角峥嵘力拔山。
The hair is pure and spotless,
it once brought Laozi into the secluded pass.
The mighty and majestic voice amazed the audience,
and the horns are towering and powerful.

The blue color has a deep and rich hue, typical of the period and highly prized by collectors.

The dish is in excellent condition.

Storage box included.

These kind of dishes are well documented in the literature, we have added some pictures.
