Bulbous squat vase - any advise on marker or region this vase is from?
Unmarked / unsigned small squat bulbous vase. Would appreciate any information about it…. I have no idea how to describe this style of pottery, possible maker, period it dates to or what country it originates from!
About 10cm / 4in high. Green, brown, black colours in the glaze.
Thanks in advanced for any insight you can share :)

I'm afraid it's not distinctive enough to identify without a potter's stamp. Likely to have been made any time in the 70s-90s when some potters switched to using sticky labels rather than stamps

Thanks. British rather than say Chinese?

Very much a Leach style pot. That is a style of pottery much copying the style of Bernard Leach. he was very popular back in the 60's and 70's. He was regarded as the Godfather of modern British studio pottery. He himself was very strongly influenced by Japanese pottery. Hence the oriental feel to your pot. Google Bernard Leach Images to see what I mean. For modern exponents look at the work of Jim Malone, Mike Dodd and Phil Rogers, We also have threads on all these potters which you can find in our Search box.
There were a lot of very good potters back in the 70's who could not make a living out of studio pottery. This probably from one of those. Too generic to put a name to tho.
