    Bought these 2 pots, that some describe as tobacco jars, others as tea jars, and I found one describing it as a cigar and a cigarette jar.
    And there's also discord with aging and pricing...
    So, what's your verdict? :)

    And is this a maker's or another type of mark?

    I'm talking about that shape around the center mark.

    I'm pretty sure it's Indonesian. The double headed peacock might just be an aesthetic thingy for symmetry. But AJ will definitely have all the answers :)
