[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 939500, member: 84"]Found these at a local thrift store. They looked old & having been underwater for some time so my first thought was these are rare old vases that were brought up from a ship wreck! (hey - you can find all kinds of things that were donated to thrift stores that turn out to be Cartier, a painting by a famous artist, etc.. - why not sunken treasure? lol) Also, they were only $4.99 each so I can't get hurt financially if they are nothing. I'm pretty sure they are terra cotta from what I can see in the chip on a rim. So are these really old or just really crusty? Thanks all!
