    Any ideas?

    That's not at all what I expected to see after reading the title. No clue on that one, but definitely curious to see what everyone comes up with.

    Probably English chamotte in the sensibility of mingei, Leach/Hamada humility ethic, would be better without those chix, form is OK though, weight looks ok too but hard to tell weight from pic!

    It weighs just under half a kilo.

    It's all about the heft versus scale. The only way to judge that is in hand, unfortunately.

    It feels good. Iā€™m going to list tomorrow as unidentified and hope two bidders want it.
