Hello Andrea, I’m very glad that you chose Mearto for your online appraisal, Considering the photographs, overall pattern, material and the composition, I concluded that this is an Entirely Hand Made Ceramic-Pottery Mugh with Nature Pattern. The piece dates to the period between 1980-2000. The piece is likely made from a composite material including a large amount of ceramic. The piece was shaped by hand, we can understand this from the rim and the irregualr shapes at various points. The handle is glazed unlike the body and it is made of ceramic material. The handle is shaped and painted as a tree branch, which was a famous design in 1990's. The patern is likely hand painted and represents the bracnhes of a pine tree. Most of the piece was left blank, it has no visible marks or signatures on it. The piece has many impressed shapes underneath it. These includes dots and a sea shell, it is a contemporary work for sure. The piece is in good condition with a single crack under the handle. Entirely hand made. Dimensions: Unknown. Condition: The piece is in good condition with a single crack under the handle. Provenance: Inherited from the current owner's Fiancé. Decorated with a natural pattern. 30-40$.
