<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taupou, post: 172785, member: 45&quot;]I&#039;d agree, that it&#039;s modern studio pottery.&nbsp; Many contemporary potters experiment with old techniques of glazing and firing, which can result in pots that resemble the old stoneware.&nbsp; This one, however, doesn&#039;t show any evidence of wear or use, which would be present on a hundred year old or so pot.&nbsp; The bowl shape also points more to a modern piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>It appears to be salt glazed, in a wood fired kiln.&nbsp; With a rather uneven firing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Classic alkaline glaze is usually a greenish-brown color, and is flowing or &quot;runny,&quot; with drips.&nbsp; Salt glaze is usually more cream to tan in color, and has what is generally referred to as an &quot;orange peel&quot; surface.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
