    Hi!...This is part of todays Haul via an Estate sale......It a Meiping shaped vase....approx. 11 in ht x 6 in width at the widest point..it has a rustic appearance much like early american pottery....it does have a couple of cracks on the sides....I bought it because the shape reminds me of a Chinese Meiping vase that I have....and its also similar to some pics of older/earlier Chinese pottery in color design etc...except for the iridescent reddish/pinkish color that can be seen on top of the dark brown color at certain angles....I don't think that color would have been available in China a couple hundred years ago....so I'm leaning towards early American style....and there are a couple of marks on the foot that I cant quite make out....if someone can shed some light on this vase...that would be great..... rsz_unexpected_find_celadon_charger_and_mei_ping_vase_013.jpg rsz_close_up_pic_meiping_vase_and_celadon_charger_001 (2).jpg rsz_unexpected_find_celadon_charger_and_mei_ping_vase_014.jpg rsz_unexpected_find_celadon_charger_and_mei_ping_vase_025.jpg rsz_close_up_pic_meiping_vase_and_celadon_charger_002 (1).jpg rsz_unexpected_find_celadon_charger_and_mei_ping_vase_016.jpg rsz_unexpected_find_celadon_charger_and_mei_ping_vase_020.jpg rsz_unexpected_find_celadon_charger_and_mei_ping_vase_017.jpg

    To me it looks more like Western studio pottery.
