    This cylindrical, Chinese ceramic vase is about 7" high x 3.5" diameter. It is hand painted and has a painted inscription and kiln mark. Guessing it is pretty recently made. I have better images of the kiln mark but will have to wait to get access to better software before I can inset it into one of these images. The message says "Bamboo Message of Peace" in traditional Chinese writing. The red mark is probably a kiln mark but I could not identify it. This may be a brush pot for calligraphy.

    Goodwill find today. I think I have seen this there before, but pickings were slim. A group of pickers showed up while I was there and were talking about the closing of the thrift shop a couple of blocks from my house. I later found out that it did not close but moved about three miles away, making it fairly inconvenient for me to visit it.

      Thanks for your comments, Jenni! I like that it is decorated on all sides!

      Thanks for your comments, Karen! It would work very well as a brush pot, I think! Guessing the inscription is a clue to its purpose.
