The mark image is too small. I would not buy it either way. Although it seems to be an old bowl the interior looks as if it is printed. Apart from this, Batavia ware should not have this type of blue color.

Hello Peter and Stan
Take a closer look, it is infact a printed decoration.
But I still take photos of its base to show you.
I'm wandering what does it mean?
Regards

???? (taosheng xuanzhi) a shop or manufacturer's mark ... if authentic it is probably Qing dynasty.
