The inscription says it is Ming dynasty, Hongwu reign, the first reign of that dynasty.The quality looks right, but with such items only a hands-on inspection can make sure.
This belongs to the perhaps 5% of items that cannot be reliable evaluated via pictures only. You will also have to look if the origin and/or price is possible for such an item.
If an inspection proves that it is authentic, then you might have an official kiln (imperial) item, based on the inscription alone. The problem is that today's top fakes can imitate anything, any quality. Sometimes are difficult to keep top fakes and real items apart without further scientific inspection.

Thank you very much Peter for your help, it's true with such items it's difficult to be sure from the image.
I have seen counterfeit items on ebay of superior quality almost identical to this one.
Thank's.
