Purchased this 7 inch bowl at auction. It is deep cobalt blue with a creamy interior with dragons and clouds inside. Can you identify the markings on the bottom and do you have an idea as to its age?
Thanks so much

The mark identified as from Ming dynasty during Xuande reign.
It's very unlikely of the period but could have been made during the Rupublic era and worth some money.

Thank you for your reply. What indicates it is likely not from the Ming dynasty? When was the republic period and what do you think it is worth? Thank you!
