This is a vase that may be the base of a ginger pot or it may just be a wide mouth vase. It was used by a Canadian artist in an oil painting. It measures 5.25 inches tall, 4 inches across at the rim. It is white pottery that has been glazed. In the photos you can see the inside of the vase top edge where it is not glazed. It has raised gold details, hand painted with blues and yellow. There are no makers marks. It does have some wear, note the condition above. It seems to be an older vase. Perhaps it is a hidden gem. It is from a smoke free home.
