Message:: [QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 4315766, member: 10944"]Sorry I forgot to update here. Thanks AJ and everyone for great informative replies. This piece definitely had the look. I was working that day when I saw it posted for sale. I posted here looking for more info on it. Finally got home at night checked here for replies. Got even more intrigued when I saw AJ’s reply obviously. Only to check back and see that the pot has sold in the meantime. Not surprising I guess. Usually when good things go up on the local marketplaces they get snapped up right away. They were asking $200 but seemed ready to deal. At $200 and considering the size and fragility in regards to shipping I wasn’t going to bite. Just was going to store it as a valuable lesson in ID’ing Martaban pots/jars. If I could have gotten them down to about half that I would have probably taken a chance. It looks like they don’t sell super often, on eBay at least. It would have been very annoying to ship. I guess a local auction house that specializes in Asian stuff would have been the best bet. Very captivating looking thing though. It came out of a storage unit. I’ll try to keep an eye on the guys other listings.[/QUOTE]
