      i like the shape. i don't think it's ancient, but a copy - maybe a European piece? etruscan/grecian?

      It looks greek or roman in shape, impossible to say how old it is from the photo's but looks as if the colours have been added afterwards to create an aged effect. Most noticeable on the base photo.

      Thanks Gracay2004,I believe it has been painted to look old but wasn't sure

      Regardless of monetary value it is a lovely looking piece of pottery and your nephew did well to find it.
