Hello for all I just buyed some days ago a very beautifull bowl I know that here is not the right forum to ask for this kind of help.
For me how Iīm from Spain is a little bit dificult to translate the chinese words.


Someone translated me the text but Iīm not very sure:

Jing De Zhen
Xi Xuan Yuan
Meng Jing

And I understand that Jing De Zhen is a very popular town from China and the last is The name of an artist Meng Jing the problem is I canīt find nothing about this artist on google here.
For me is a beautifull item but I donīt know nothing more about this item!

Glad to help if we can!

The translation you got over there is correct.

Normally the artist or the craftman won't sign his/her name on the porcelain ware.

Dear Barcelona-antic (sorry I don't remember your name). Why do you worry about the artist name? I am wondering if you think that your bowl has some age. If so, sorry it has not, it is a modern piece and to know the artist name will not add much to it I think. I am not diminishing it, it has its own charm and what is important is that you like it. I am just placing it under the right light.
Kind regards
Giovanni

The bowl is modern but very beautiful. I think it is a good idea to learn all you can about it. Do it now, while the artist may be alive. Possibly you could research pottery workshops making this type of ware, contact them with photos and ask if you can be put in contact with the artist. You'll learn a lot directly from the artist.
  When I was doing my catalogue, I found a Chinese doctoral student at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, who could read and write English almost as well as Chinese. He earned extra cash, and I got my info translated. If you get info in Chinese from the artist, you can get it translated.
