I found this at an Estate sale. Liked it because it is very unusual. I would like to know what it is called. I know that the fluid is poured into the hole and you tip is upside down when you want it to come out the spout. It has a crackle glaze finish. has a design of some kind embossed in the material it is made from. What do you think?
Some one smart must know what this is.
I have NO idea...Looks ALIEN to me.............but if it was some Pottery made by GEORGE OHR, you have struck Gold !! LOL

I do NOT think it is -- but He made some Weird Pottery !!!
maybe a chinese water dropper in the shape of a peach?
I know what it is --a Chinese wine pot. Shaped like a peach.
How do you know what is "upside down" ?
i'm pretty certain that this is a chinese water dropper. peach shaped ones are pretty common, but this may be a very good one.
i am with ho2 , i am not an expert in this likely around 1900, i can,t see anything wrong with it , but i am not an expert, crackle looks sedimentation looks well
