Subject:OLD GINGER JAR?
Posted By: Andrew Sat, Jun 09, 2012 IP: 86.145.103.85
Please could someone tell me the origin of this pot and the style of decoration?

Many thanks
Andrew

a few more scans to show detail, there are no markings on the base etc.

The green, pink, yellow and blue glaze looks very primitively applied?

Thanks
Andrew

Decoration is distantly inspired by Chinese decoration, but no particular 'style'.

Looks like a utility jar recently decorated by paint.

Perhaps someone will recognize the jar material's appearance but I do not.

In-focus photo of bottom of jar taken in natural light might help.

Good luck,
Cal
