George Ohr piece?

Question:
This is a large thrown? rose fire glazed pot that I’m trying to find who could have made it. One of the prospects was, or is, George Ohr because of the glaze and other aspects of the piece. Thought I’d ask the experts to get their opinion on this piece. One of the aspects is how it was made, the clay looks whitish gray, the base is well defined and it is thin walled. Mario

 

Answer: Hi Mario

I’m not an Ohr expert, but most all his pieces were marked, altho I do agree it is a bit on the bizarre side… I’m not sure who made it. wish we could be of more help. thanks, steve n rose
