This artist-signed vase is an example of studio pottery, specifically handcrafted stoneware with a distinctive horse design. The main body of the vessel is black, while the upper rim features a vibrant blue glaze with a flowing, almost abstract pattern. The dimensions are 4.5 inches tall and 2.5 inches wide. This vase is in excellent condition with no signs of cracks or chips. Please review all pictures to assess additional condition information about the item.
A stylized image of a horse, outlined in a light, unglazed or differently colored clay (tan/yellowish), is prominently featured on the side, extending from the base towards the top. It embodies a folk art or artisan style, characteristic of Mara Stoneware pieces.

This movement, which arose in response to mass-produced industrial ceramics, is characterized by unique, often one-off pieces and is represented by makers worldwide
