There is overpainting to about half of the footring, possibly covering a restored foot chip. There is a minute glaze flake to the rim. The gilding on the red ground is largely lost.
The present bowl belongs to a group of colour-ground kinrande wares made for export to the Japanese market for use in their tea ceremonies. Jiajing-marked bowls of this design are very rare. A related example decorated with peaches is illustrated in Mayuyama, Seventy Years, Volume One, Mayuyama & Co. Ltd., Tokyo, 1976, p. 280, no. 839.
