Blue green ceramic vase greek?

[lewisaroyer]

Picked this ceramic vase up thrifting. It has what looks like a thin blue glaze with some green mixed in on the outside and inside. There is a floral pattern engraved with some greek looking trim around the top. I don't have a clue as to what it is or where it originated. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Lewisa,

You posted in the subsection: "What Is It". Below I took the liberty to describe what I know about modern ceramics based on my personal and professional background.

1. Its an inexpensive ceramic vase that is molded (cast), it's not hand thrown, which makes it a high volumn production.

2. Its glazed outside and inside, as well, which speaks to being made most likely in the orient...China would be a good guess.

3. The glazing technique means it was fully dipped which signifies assembly line production, cheap labor and big hurry to mass produce a product for export.

4. This type of garden or table art is quite commonly sold at garden centers such as Home Depot.

5. And it's not a Greek pattern.

I hope this answers your question.

I'm leaning towards what Stefan has concluded, but maybe post it also in the thrift store or garage sale forum, as that's the kind thing they're finding. I see a thisle design. To me that indicates something Scottish.

The first line of import is thru Garden Centers, and somewhere along the line they are sold thru a garage sale or donated to a thrift shop.

Or lastly the owner is tired of the vase and throws it into the trash or it's accidentally broken then trashed.

It is what it is.
