Beautiful Black Glazed Lidded Stoneware Studio Pottery Vessel military I think it is both

I think it is both wonderfully specific and transcendentally good

with a little paint loss and roughness on the edge of the ear

the dovetail box is missing the edge trim on one end of its sliding top

Beautiful Black Glazed Lidded Stoneware Studio Pottery Vessel military I think it is bothJust a beautifully crafted, elegant hand thrown lidded pot, which could be used for cooking and serving, or storing odds and ends, or just for display. I think the combination of charcoal black glaze with soft green around the rim of the vessel and lid and on the lid's center handle is just perfect, and together with the form gives it a bit of an Asian feel, though I believe it is American, signed (incised) PAT on the underside. Very nice. 7 3 8"
