Antique eggshell Qing Dynasty Jiaqing porcelain-or Japanese Poss. Meiji or Qing

This stunning weightless antique porcelain eggshell bowl, featuring exquisite craftsmanship and a delicate, translucent quality. The exterior displays intricate hand-painted designs of Japanese samurai warriors in vibrant colors and detailed patterns, suggesting a possible Meiji period (1868-1912) origin. However, the red reign mark on the interior base, written in Chinese, hints at a potential Qing Dynasty Jiaqing era (1796-1820) association, raising questions about its true provenance—possibly a Japanese imitation of Chinese styles or a rare cultural fusion piece. Alternatively, it could be a genuine Qing Dynasty piece with a samurai design, reflecting cultural exchange or trade influences. The bowl is in good condition with minor age-related wear, enhancing its antique charm. Ideal for collectors of Asian ceramics or as a unique decorative item. Measures approximately 3” height depth 2” width 6” Serious inquiries only, please.
