<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 4540779, member: 76316&quot;]I bought this 20 years ago because the woven metalwork is similar to a fine Japanese ceramic bowl I was gonna inherit, and since have. That one is in storage , but I <u>may</u> have pics...if I find &#039;em, I&#039;ll post here.</p><p><br /></p><p>The question is: what is this metal-wrapped ceramic process called, is it from a particular town or prefecture...and how long has it been practiced?</p><p><br /></p><p>This vessel is 4 1/2&quot; high, the mouth is 2 3/8&quot;, the foot is 2 5/8&quot;, and it weighs ~15 oz. The metal is probably nickel-plated brass; the vertical ribbons are 2.75mm wide; the finer horizontal ribbons are 1mm wide. All of it is extremely tight on the vessel. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]401976[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401977[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401978[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401979[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401980[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
