<p>[QUOTE="kentworld, post: 2792426, member: 35"]Sorry I’m late to the party, but I don’t check in every day. So, IMHO, the vase or jug or what ever you would like to call it, is a folk pottery from the decoration. I can see why OBB thought possibly Chinese, but I don't think so in this case. I can’t for the life of me see why this would have been re-glazed unless done soon afterwards if the first glazing was not good. Age? Not easy to determine because folk art motifs are used similarly for many years. My guess would be late 19th c/early 20th c. The horizontal striping may be due to the construction of the vase. It may possibly be that the main body was coil construction and it somehow shows in the oxidation. I note that it doesn’t occur on the neck of the vase. So, don’t clean if you are selling. It if you are keeping it, then the choice is yours. Although charming, I think it’s value may be modest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
