Title: Crackled vase ID
Post by: Tigerchips on February 08, 2009, 11:37:09 AM

I'm not quite sure if it's old or new, although some of the glaze is coming off. I just found it very interesting.... and it was only 50p.  ;) There are no pottery marks on it at all.

Isn't that a raku effect?

I think this will remain an unkown TC...there are hundreds on potteries  that run Raku firing workshops to bring in some extra cash, my guess is it's an amateur/student piece, but I may be wrong.

No marks of any bit - I thought I saw something there that (might) be a D... below the center, and a bit to the left in the pic....or not ????
