Subject:Peachbloom horn handle urn vase?
Posted By: Joe q Sat, Mar 03, 2018 IP: 73.112.80.18

Thanks for taking the time to look, been searching with no luck for info on this item. Because of the glaze thinking it may be Korean or Chinese, any thoughts would be appreciated. 10 1/2" high by
8 1/2" wide

A similar horned-handled jar form was also make by Japanese potters from Awaji Island.

Thanks for the reply, would the glaze be typical of what they did on Awaji? Best regards Joe
