Chinese Ming Dynasty / Transitional Blue & White Porcelain Bowl

This small blue & white porcelain bowl, or dish, was made during the early to mid 17th Century. Although it is attractively decorated in underglaze blue, we are unsure what the unusual central design represents; our best guess is that it is the conch (a symbol of prosperous travels) together with the Shou character (meaning longevity).
