I can’t find anything similar online. What would I call this? Thanks for any help! 7BF0E92C-C4A1-47F5-AFD9-9EDC6F938A93.jpeg

    Agree re age. That crazing is typical of recent Chinese imports. I'd call it a cornucopia or a cornucopia-shaped vase with faux ormolu mounts.

    While it is antiquey looking in style, the forced crackle visible on the inside is typical of modern Chinese pieces made to look old. Hope that's not the case, but it is a good possibility.

    The shape may be inspired by drinking vessels called rhytons.
