[QUOTE="KylieS, post: 9757542, member: 22292"]Hello all Happy Weekend ! I'm posting a little oddity I picked up a few days ago ... very knocked about and very coarse in form but I thought it had a little folksy charm, plus yellow is always fun ;) it was very dirty when i bought it so couldn't really see the wear patterns. Now it's cleaned I can't figure out if this is a 70s art project from a Sunday potter or an old rustic puzzle jug. It looks sort of like Donyatt pieces and or many French regional styles by the glaze, but the overall view doesn't seem to fit in anywhere. It has no marks on it at all which I'd expect if it was a recent thing. There is only one hole and the base, which doesn't seem to provide much of a puzzle... Hoping someone with more experience with glazes and puzzle jugs might be able to advise. Thanks for looking :) [ATTACH=full]479648[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]479649[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]479650[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]479651[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]479652[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]479653[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]479654[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
