Unidentified objects
What have you found?
Post photographs and everything you know. Other collectors can study the marks, shape, glaze, materials, and construction—and share what they recognize.
Before you post
Give the community good clues.
Clear views of the whole piece, base, signature, labels, and any damage make identification much easier.
01
Photograph the front, back, base, and any marks in even light.
02
Include measurements, material, where it was found, and any family history.
03
Identification is collaborative opinion, not a formal appraisal or authentication.
