I picked up this blue 8” vase today. It appears to be hand thrown with drippy glaze and very faint rings (towards the bottom, not very discernible). It is very similar on the bottom to a blue Bauer Matt Carlton fan vase I have, but the blue doesn’t quite match the shade or glossiness of my vintage Bauer. The base looks similar to my Bauer too. Kentucky 1928 is handwritten on the bottom, along with another word I can’t make out. I know Bauer started in Kentucky but had left for LA before then. My non expert online research suggests that this could be Bybee or Waco. I’ve seen examples of both with little flecks of glaze on the bottom as this one has. I looked at some older threads here, and some of you can tell the pottery from the color of the clay. It’s more yellow than red. It is glazed all the way on the inside. Bot the top and bottom rims measure about 3.25” edge to edge. I appreciate any thoughts as to origin. Thank you.[/QUOTE]
