    Hello Everyone - I have had this planter for awhile but have never been able to find out much about it. It measures 5" tall and 5 1/2" across the opening. It looks like the base color was a mustard/tan and then it was given a heavy brown overflow. The overflow is deep enough to give it a textured feel. At first I thought it might be marked on the bottom but I've come to believe it's just glaze pooling. It does have three stilt marks. The walls feel too thin to be stoneware and it may have a ring pattern under all that glaze. Google image didn't produce much that was helpful. Any opinions as to origin, age, etc. would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    It does look like letters under the glaze - maybe JAP for Japan?

    I was thinking of suggesting some additional terms for searching such as yellowware and Rockingham then I bumped into this. I don't know if it's got anything to do with yours and I don't know anything about the maker but the shape is about right and they seem to have used various marks and some have the three stilt marks.

    Anyway, if it helps, these are from Frank Moreno of California apparently.
