A beauty and it looks old.
Is it a form of incising?
I'd only be guessing, but I love it!
thanks rucklczglass, racer4four, and sklo42!
i just added another pic to show scale.
i think that this is a really good one. just my intuition.
thanks lisa! i think that the imperfections show more in the photo than in reality. does anyone know what it's called when clay is carved away - leaving a relief? this is obviously a mold made piece imitating that method.
i found one! http://www.eliteauction.com/catalogues/111911/view.php?id=505
mine is probably early 20th century because of the 'China' mark.
thanks Lisa! i did see those on gotheborg too, which got me searching.
Thanks to Rene Dijkstra
