<p>[QUOTE="Ce BCA, post: 3681944, member: 18716"]We tend to call the base layer glaze the 'ground' in the UK, so as the poster above pointed out you could also call it the yellow background. In undamaged condition and assuming it is of a standard size for a ginger jar I could see it being retailed in the UK at around £150-200 from a dealer. A private seller online would likely get less and at real world auction around half the retail price - although the auction market is fickle so could be much worse or occasionally better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
