Not with these pictures, but my impression of it is not antique.

The central medallion in blue seems to be printed. The blue of the twigs underneath the rim also gives the impression that they were made via transfer printing.
There are indents in the bottom glaze visible.

(The pictures can be further enlarged to almost screen width by clicking on them.)

Hi Peter, the Japanese have been using transfer methods clear into the 19th century, these photo's are not clear enough to see the edges whether the chips are recent or old and is this the true colour, the pictures look fuzzy to me.

Can you upload clear, sharp pictures showing the colors an everything better. The pictures look as if they were covered with fog.
