Pitcher/Creamer ID...Iris ..Asian?
Hi. I found this in Connecticut, USA. It is 10.5 cm(13 3/4") high. I can't tell if this molded or hand made.

it's very easy to tell if a pot has been thrown,feel inside for ridges made by the thrower's thumbs

the colour of the clay and the glazes tell me that it it either stoneware or porcelain,stoneware is heavy but porcelain is light in weight.

Of course the inches are incorrect...more like 4.5". I tried to feel for ridges, but there seems to be only glaze inconsistencies that had me going for awhile. There is no evidence of mold seams anywhere. I think it is a light grayish porcelain.
