What is your opinion on the age of this dish? I’m trying to learn.
I’m new to collecting so have very little experience. This is a 10.75” dish up for auction. The auction house has it listed as Qing. It looks different than others I’ve seen because of all the white ground (imo) but the border is correct for Ming Wanli (VII.2) and the shape would make it earlier according to Maura Rinaldi’s book, and to me the brush strokes and dark cobalt look correct albeit neater - better - than looser and fast work. Is this a well executed Ming dish, or Qing?
