Featured Chinese vase

Any info on this vase, please

 

a picture of the base would be very helpful mate

 

Wheel-thrown stoneware vase with a rounded body and slender neck, finished in a natural iron-rich glaze showing firing runs and colour variation. The character and execution are typical of mid-20th-century studio pottery, where form and glaze effects were central.

To assess it further, photos of the base/foot ring, any marks underneath, and a close-up of the glaze and rim would be helpful.

 

Ditto.
Beautiful shape and glaze. It could be Japanese, a tokkuri or sake bottle like this one:

Looks good for Japanese.

 

Southeast Asian anyway. Did the Japanese put the same color glaze on the bottom? I mostly remember them using white.

 

It is Japanese, and a sake bottle. It is molded, not wheel thrown like suggested earlier. The glazed bottom is typical for this type of tokkuri. I don't think it's very old.

It is very similar in shape to Chinese wine bottles.v U don't know what kind of wine the Chinese made/make.

 

Last time I checked Japan was in East Asia, not in Southeast Asia. I assume it still is.

 

You assumption is correct as always!

Never assume. Greenland used to be part of Denmark and now it's on its way to becoming the US's 51st state.

And someone threatens NL with a 25% tariff for sending a military "force" of two individuals to Greenland to prepare for a Nato excercise which the US will also take part in.
I had no idea we Dutch look so threatening. Must be because the Dutch are the nation with the tallest people on earth.

 

Not if the rest of NATO has anything to say about it, LOL.

 

What kind of phat phinger nonsense was this? I must proofread more often!

 

And I thought it was me.

 

& we're part of Nato......and the closest country to intercede on Greenlands behalf ...

can u imagine Canada sending fighter planes and ships .... against a US invasion force aimed at Greenland ??

We may as well hit them with maple syrup........ maybe slow them down a little !!!!!

Hit 'em with the curling team; those rocks have handles! Y'all will broom the floor with them.

They're afraid of your speed skating team. The Orange One is afraid of two folks wearing orange.

 

Maybe he is scared of the orange competition:
