Turqoise Ming Bowl

 This big and heavy bowl has a beautiful Turqoise color that I had never seen anywhere.


 It has light embossed drawings of dragons flying around.





There is another dragon motif inside.



The above Chinese words dates back to the Ming Dynasty - Chenghua Period.




Emperor Chenghua of Ming Dynasty
(Between year 1464 and 1487)

  1. This bowl is a beauty just by the colour of it! Usually where do you keep all these treasures? In a vault?

  2. This turqoise blue almost blinded my eyes and made me excited. Am I supposed to reveal here where they are safely kept?? Some are at home and other places.
