They are quite different in shape. This one has a much more rounded profile than the other (PDF B681). This bowl has a Chenghua mark enclosed by a double ring. This design was copied in highly stylised versions in several Qing dynasty reigns from the Kangxi period (AD 1662–1722) onwards.Porcelain with underglaze cobalt-blue decorationJingdezhen, Jiangxi province江西省, 景德鎮Ming dynasty, Chenghua mark and period, AD1465–87 PDF A649 寳相花紋宮碗這件瓷碗代表兩類有寶相花紋瓷碗之一。兩類瓷碗形狀頗不同，本件瓷碗的輪廓比另一類(PDFB681)要圓滿許多。雙圈內署成化年款。從康熙朝開始，清代數位皇帝都曾仿燒這種設計，相當格式化。瓷器，青花江西省景德鎮明代，成化， 成化款，1465-1487年
