This was on a sidewalk sale table outside the same GW where I found the Qianlong Punch Bowl . It's 6 1/2" tall with beautiful brown,tan and touches of blue grey colors. There is an unusual bump around the body which appears as a line inside the vase. It looks like it has a chip out of the base but it's a glaze miss were it didn't flow all the way to the bottom. The clay is a heavy yellowish buff color. There are no marks or labels. I've seen a green one on Ebay shaped exactly like this but they are simply calling it vintage American art pottery. Maybe McCoy Onyx yellow ware. -Mike-
BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I'm thinking McCoy "Onyx" yellow ware after I looked online a bit more. Where's my pottery expert ????... hint hint :)
OK now I'm sure it's McCoy Onyx . This one isn't marked either.

Don't have my books with me but looks right. I posted a few onyx bulb bowls a while back. Looks like McCoy bottom. I say excellent find:)
