found a large pot painted inside and out

Found on a larger size pedestal dish of the period.

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

stands about 1.5 ft tall, 2 ft wide. Found it on a rum inspired excursion to an abandoned sunken boat.

Your pot is a late 20th century product of a Macao workshop devoted to the transfer decoration of porcelain blanks that usually were made on the Mainland at Jingdezhen. Perhaps the sunken boat had been seeded?

Here are some pix of my Jiaqing mark & period (1796-1820) famille rose pedestal dish with hand-painted decoration suitable for marriage wares. You can see where the transfer decoration on the pot gives itself away by its identically repeating pattern elements. The Chinese didn't begin using transfer decoration on a commercial basis until the early 20th century.
