Title: Large 15.5" Charger, Late Qing/ Republic? 4 claw dragon
Post by: smak on Oct 25, 2021, 20:29:03
Hi guys,

What do you think? For some reason I think its a reproduction? Or Maybe Republic?

15.5 inches wide and 5 inches tall

You are probably right in that this is likely not antique. You see the flat blue color of the painted dragon, not any depth, and the red area on the unglazed bottom. Looks as if it is an artificial addition. Actually, such bottoms are not red/orange, normally.
