This board has been extremely helpful already in identifying my unidentifiable pieces (and imparting me with some great information!) I thought I would throw this other one out there for someone who may be able to give me some information on this piece. I believe its Delftware or some similar form of tin-glazed blue pottery however its very... rustic? It appears to be a scene of a farmer (?) on one side with a house and on the other side a beach (?) scene with birds. Its unsigned and heavily crackled all over. Any information regarding age, country of origin, type of pottery and preferably a translation of what you believe the pictures are of would be very helpful! 6"x4" Thank you!

The decoration looks Chinese/Japanese to me. There are some Japanese regions like Satsuma that use glaze-covered earthenware instead of porcelain so it may not be Delftware. But, it's not a shape I've seen before, either in Europe or Oriental wares so I don't know.
