    dear all

    pair of vases which i thought were Awaji. found same here: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/418694096586550077/ but the ebay page is missing.
    closer inspection: one is the real deal but the other ..... ?? :facepalm::D:hilarious: comments? could they both be Awaji?

    regards

    Thirded. I like those no matter who made them, and I wouldn't know Awaji from Wanamaker.

    yes, they are both Awaji yellow and green dripware. i have a few of them too, but like these ones alot! From the 1930s, maybe 1920s.

    Since this thread has been resurrected from over a year ago, thought I might share this piece of Awaji from my inventory. The bamboo basket-weave coverings on these are often missing.

    So fascinating. This made me look up the story of Awaji pottery on wiki-p.
    Most attractive.
