Here is a site with a lot of information on Oriental Vases:

Under the Ming dynasty from 1368 to 1649, the manufacture of porcelain made great advances, the emperors of this dynasty being all patrons of art. Under this dynasty, in the reign of Siouen-te (1426-1435), the finest objects were made. Belonging to this period we find vases whose handles are decorated with a red fish. An extremely small flower painted in dull color in the centre of a cup is a mark of this period Combats of crickets were a favorite decoration; a young girl is especially mentioned who incised these combats beautifully in the paste. Enamelled vases were made to imitate the skin of the Kio (a kind of sweet orange). When this is found in the bottom of white cups it is of dull color. An extremely small phoenix and dragon in enamel are found on objects made in this period for the use of the Emperor, also some pieces on which are represented cock fights.
