    Hi, I am wonder if some one can identify this pottery wine bottle. Is it antique? The body is mix color of green and orange, there are some spot like rust, but I have cleaned with sand paper, and it becomes orange again, but with some kind of small dot bubbles. From the chip, the body is from red clay covered with glass. Thank you

    You might try looking at pilgrim flasks to see what you can find.

    Don't use anymore sandpaper on it.
    It is not covered with glass. You are removing the glaze with the sandpaper.

    Clean with a paste of Barkeepers Friend, using an old scothbrite pad.
    Or some people like Mr Clean erasers.
    This won't hurt your piece like sand paper will.

    Thank you, it really helps. Yes I see it might be a pilgrim flask from the shape. I thought a Chinese wine bottle before.

    Thank you for the cleaning tips. Is it good to clean it or is it better to leave it as it is now?

    I had clean up again, and found that under loup, chips on green area show black clay, and crack in orange area show redish white clay. Is it from chemical reaction or something to make it fake? I also see in my pilgrim flask mouse and handles have black lumps area like burning acne. Is it because fired?

    I saw in Google there is a replica of pilgrim flask. Is it the kind of it?

    I shall appreciate for your comments.
