Hello, i some1 able 2 help me please identify this piece? I have done some research-I believe its an amphora, but Ive been wrong b/4 :·) There are some markings on the bottom, but I cannot make them out-I tried comparing w/ others, but I just don’t know. I had no idea how many different styles, varieties, makers, different markings there where-Holy Moly, there is a lot!! Help would be much appreciated-pics are attached. Thank You:·)
I have looked at the bottom and I see nothing that resembles any kind of makers mark nor a signature !! Your vase is in the amphora shape but there are many variations of amphora !! And they are still being made and used in some countries !! Yours does appear to be hand made and shows some age !! These were traditionally used to store wine and other liquids but nowdays they are simply used as a vase !! I would say yours is probably mid century or before !! Could have been brought back from someones vacation,, possibly the Mediterranean region !! May have held olive oil or even a good wine !!
