Fire1981 Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 This is 3 1/2 inches and is hollow. Just that one little pin hole in the bottom so it wouldn’t blown up in the kiln. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted January 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 It's round and rolls like a cue ball. It's not flat where the pin hole is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 These are seen in blue and white, often called Delft and more common than this color for sure. Not hand painted but using form of transfer glaze. The hole may have been made for a hanger of some sort. Porcelain, clay etc etc, who cares. It is a very cool find. Do not drop it--LOL.
