[QUOTE="Taupou, post: 4569575, member: 45"]Kentworld is correct, it's a hobby piece of glazed greenware. It's glazed on the bottom, and I don't know of any studio potters who glaze the bottoms of their pots. The signature is also unlike that of a professional studio potter. Greenware for hobby crafts is usually made from a mold, which explains the line on the bottom. The [U]original[/U] could have been thrown on a wheel, and then the mold made of it, which is often the case.[/QUOTE]
