I’m stuck on this piece. There are areas that point that this is Japanese, but also possibly Chinese. The positioning of the kiln spurs, the exposed clay emits green under a UV light possibly showing Feldspar, the foots shape and the way the glaze is equally rounded at the bottom of the foot makes me think Chinese. The lobed rim looks like an export piece. The chenghua marking was used by both Japanese and Chinese during the 18th century. I’m just stuck on this piece. My mind wants me to believe it’s Chinese, but reality always has different plans.
