Chinese Antique Happiness bowl Cobalt Blue Design Hand Made Qing Dynasty 5-7/8"

Description

Measures 5-7/8" in diameter and approx. 2-1/4" in height.
Conditions of note:
Bowl has a Handwritten mark on the inside bottom
Occasional bits of kiln grit in the glaze inside and out
Some rough spots along the foot. Bowl is handmade, and old. It is not perfect.
There is age/use wear along the interior of the bowl
Design on the bowl is cobalt. I do not know the provenance of this bowl other than it is Qing or earlier.
This bowl is from a large estate lot of similar bowls. They are all covered in dirt as though they were dug from the ground at some point and not cleaned. I clean them with water to remove as much soil as possible before shipping but there will be dirty areas as I do not want to use any cleaners on them that may damage the bowl. These are very old and I do not want to “scrub” them clean.
This is an estate item and is therefore sold as is.
