Stoneware vase

This stoneware vase with a red and brownish glaze stands 8 1/2 inches tall, with a 1 1/2 inch opening at the top. It’s a heavy vase, the base is marked but partially obstructed by excess glaze. Apparently it was a personal gift from the potter maybe because i think one part reads “I love you”. I can’t make out the rest of the writing. I think it’s a pretty vase with pleasing color. Hopefully someone can help identify it. Thanks for looking.
