Based on images and data in the Mainland China-issued 'Compendium of Marks on Chinese Historical Porcelains', this bowl with base-mark of "Made during the Xuande Reign' (宣德年造 - Xuan de nian zao) is a Ming Wan Li Period (1573-1619) imitation of porcelain from the earlier reign, in power from 1426-1435. The blue & white floral scroll and base-mark shown on the bowl in the book reflects the same design and calligraphic style as seen here, except your bowl is more refined in its painting, albeit more damaged.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Thanks so much! I realize the damage detracts, but the history is fascinating

DO NOT CLEAN IT.
Keep it as is.
