chicken cup (bowl)
Wine-cup, porcelain, decorated with overglaze enamels in green, red, yellow and aubergine, a hen with her chicks, a rock, a cockerel and bamboo. On the inside of the cup another rock with bamboo and a butterfly. On the base a six-character Jiajing reign mark in a double circle (but probably not of the period).
