[QUOTE="Sassy, post: 274587, member: 5547"]No way! That is fascinating. Where would I go about finding thousand year old pottery pieces? Especially something similar to this piece? It's no bother that it isn't worth anything, we are not planning on selling it now. This is going to be something we keep in our family, it's such an interesting piece and has a nice little story about being a $3 auction find! I am just tickled pink about this. Thank you all so much. I guess my only question now is, how do I go about discovering how old the ceramic really is? I would love to be able to solve that piece of the puzzle. I'm guessing its not out of the question that it is 12 or 13th century Iranian piece? But how would I prove this? Would an antiques appraiser necessarily know something like this or would I be looking for someone specialized? How much can I expect to pay for an appraisal?[/QUOTE]
