[QUOTE="blooey, post: 1018985, member: 12007"]All kidding aside, I think you would have a better chance of identifying the pot, or at least narrowing it down to country of origin/area by looking at the unglazed body at the foot. This is not a type that I have seen - or at least a colour of fired grog that I am familiar with. Find another piece of known origin with that same clay and at least you'll be in the ballpark. It doesn't look Dutch or Scandinavian to me and I haven't seen too much from French studio potters that go in for this type of work - but going on the idea that the piece is but a few years old (newish) ..anything is possible. Good luck.[/QUOTE]
