Posted By: Robert Fri, Feb 09, 2018 Not a triple gourd vessel. Looks more like a stupa form container made of glazed stoneware. Stupa form containers made of metal, stone, pottery, etc., were often used as Buddhist reliquaries. I do not know if this was the intended use for your container or if it is only a recently made, decorative object. |
