Qianlong porcelain bowls, real or fake, price? please help!

by Anastasia

Hello! I got two porcelain bowls.
Bowls are 4,5 inches in diameter.
One (with a crack) with flowers looks like here

Other with clouds and calligraphy in perfect condition.
Are they real or reproductions?
I would greatly appreciate any advice, or information about the price in any case.
Thank you for your time,
Sincerely, Ana.

Hi,
We do not talk about values here. Please refer to Value of Antiques in the left menu.

I have doubts that this is from the Qianlong period. This type of items were commonly made from the Jiaqing reign and later. Often the marks of earlier reigns were applied. This was especially the case during the Jiaqing reign.

These two bowls are part of set of bowls, usually about five or more, in which each had a different decoration.
