This deviates a bit from traditional shapes.
The center decoration looks odd. Never saw that on antique Chinese porcelain.
My guess is that unless this is Japanese, it would me made more recently.

It looks like there might be a mark on the bottom, could you post a closer picture of the bottom and the mark.

I can't as this is an advertised item and these are the only pictures available. Would have to ask the seller to send a close up shot but peters gave the impression that perhaps its a piece more recently made.

The bottom was cast on sand in the kiln late 19th century Japanese porcelain was common.
