Hi everyone, after learning about Awaji pottery, recently found this vase at an antique store, it was a lamp, I took it apart because I think it looks better as a vase, the reason I am posting is because of what is left inside the vase, it has a stilt that stuck to the bottom, I have never seen one before, it is cone shaped and this would have been used with two other stilts to support another piece that would have been put inside the vase and fired at the same time, the vase is unsigned but I am convinced that it is late 19th century and this is what a stilt looks like, the vase is 36 cm tall.

Here is the last photo's and a photo's of the stilt that was left in the vase because the glaze bonded it to the bottom.
