<p>[QUOTE="blooey, post: 2951955, member: 12007"]Hate to be harsh here, but this is not an old piece, looks very like studio pottery as [USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] suggested. In my opinion, you are overthinking this. The form is somewhat reminiscent of Shigaraki or Iga waste water jars but hundreds of artist-potters have created pieces inspired by that aesthetic, but almost all of them have a practical as well as decorative uses. Yours, IMO is too skinny to be of any practical use and the domed lid is very impractical and unstable indeed. No doubt that's why it is already damaged.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
