      A “weed-pot” type flower vase, maybe? It would be a unique holder for one special blossom.

      Are you sure it's terracotta - I'm thinking perhaps lacquer? Just a thought...

      thanks watchsearcher, blunder, Roycroft, and finders! i can see the terracotta where there's a small chip on the bottom. it's very thin and high fired though as it sounds like enameled metal when i click it. it's a really cool design and a very mysterious piece!
