Pottery Weed Pot

Probably studio piece and difficult to ID but just in case someone recognizes the style.
Thanks

 

Well the title sure got my attention but I'll be darned if I can figure out how you'd smoke weed out of it!

Size helps.

 

I need an English lesson, please... is "weed" slang for a common studio pot... ?
Or... ?
And size matters because...?

 

Back in the 70's and 80's there was a craze in putting a few stems of dried "weeds" in a pot shaped like this one - bulbous body with a very narrow opening on top. Most of those were fairly small. Had nothing to do with "weed" as you might know it know.

"Size matters" = how big or small something is can be an indication of origin and time frame.

 

About 7 1/2" tall. I know this shape is known as weed pot/vase but never found a definition.

 

LOL....weed is a slang term for marijuana. however there were also weed pots made for decorating as per bakersgma's post.

 

I figured she knew the first part.

 

Thank you, my friends!
I am getting so educated here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
