[QUOTE="wlwhittier, post: 4514573, member: 76316"]This is 4½" high, 2¾" mouth (either way!), 3½" foot; it weighs 12 oz. It's been thrown, judging by the interior bottom. The foot rim has been ground; it's dead flat. Capacity is ~6-7 oz, estimated. UV takes the green background and interior to black, and severely mutes the design while allowing some color to remain. What looks like '22' near the foot in pic 3 is a puzzle. It's underglaze, but it doesn't seem to be part of the design. I have no memory about where or when I acquired it. Long ago though, I believe. Is it Majolica? Does it ring any bells for any of you pottery scholars? Thanks for lookin'!
