Hello John, I would be very grateful if you could tell me anything about a lovely pottery vase I came across. It appears to have crazing with signature on vase but no base mark. Thank you for your time, regards Deni

you have got me on this one.

The photogragh does not give much away other than a signature, that I do not reconize. The photograph does not give clues to the very thick glaze, The item looks like it is a reproduction vase made in the last 10 years or so. If you brought it in to the shop so I could hold it. I am sure I would get a much better idea. It does not look antique, nor does it look a one off piece. It may have an oriental look, but where it was made I have no idea. a picture of the base would hel.
