Hello Peter and all

My name is Corinne and I love to shop in antique and thrift stores always looking for that special thing that calls out to me. I love antiques and although I have so many , I don't really know much about value .

I do enjoy investigating and learning about my treasures and most of the time I have good luck identifying them . I love to decorate my home , which this year I chose the " shabby chic" style.most of my finds are of the victorian period and I love anything pink!

I am an artist and I feel I have a good eye for beautiful things ..while doing my thrift shop thing last month I swayed away from my usual victorian style when I spotted a 3 inch pitcher.

It was pinkish! Right up my alley! My eyes caught it for a moment and I passed it by and continued on .. It wasn't victorian .. At least I don't believe so.I picked up a couple of things and as I was about to leave I glanced to my side and caught view of it again.

I decided I needed to have it I loved the petiteness of it and it was such a pretty rose color with a green glaze over it. It had no price so the salesman let me have it for a dollar. Upon taking it home I tried to research it on the internet and could find nothing. I really can't understand the signature at all although it is pretty clear . It looks like it says either gaul lee potter or jaul lee potter to me but others may see it differently.

I uploaded photos and I hope they are clear enough. I am hoping someone can tell me not only the name of the artist but even maybe someone knows a little about the piece as well. Whether or not I find out I love my little
Rose color pitcher ..

I think it's beautiful both shape ,size and color.

Thanks so much and I look forward to any feedback. -
