THIS IS A FINE EXAMPLE OF A FIERCE 3 DRAGON CHINESE BOWL.  THE DIMENSIONS ARE: 6 1/4" DIAMETER X 3 1/4" HEIGHT.  THE ESTIMATED AGE IS LATE MING OR EARLY QING DYNASTY (1600-1750 AD). 

THE BOWL IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS AGE.  THERE ARE SOME CHIPS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE BOWL BUT THE COLORS AND OVERALL PRESENTATION OF THIS RARE BOWL IS VERY GOOD.  THERE IS A MARK ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BOWL CONSISTENT WITH LATE MING AND EARLY QING.  THERE IS ALSO AN OWNERSHIP MARK DRILLED INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE BOWL BY A VERY EARLY OWNER.

THE PROVENANCE IS FROM AN ESTATE IN FLORIDA, USA.   THIS ARTWORK IS GUARANTEED TO BE AN AUTHENTIC ANTIQUE AND NOT A MODERN REPRODUCTION.  COMMENTS FROM EXPERTS ARE WELCOMED.
