A very nice quality and condition hand-crafted glazed ceramic or stoneware piece. The photo came out a bit hot, it is a medium brown color with tan highlights, not reddish. Evocative of much Japanese landscape art or sculpture, it is intended to show a house on a promontory in a wooded area. As such it has a fantasy touch to it. As you can see there is considerable depth to the detail especially for a smaller vase; it is just over 4" tall. I estimate it is fifty or more years old. Estimated at twelve ounces packaged for shipping purposes.
