Mid-C Zanesville Ribbed Stoneware Planter bowling pin paperweight I just love the imageI've had several of these c. 1940s 50s ribbed Zanesville pieces over time, both tall columnar vases and planters like this one, which I'll never pass one by as I think they're pretty hard to beat.

Approx 6 1 2" in diameter x 4 5 8" t. Plenty of imperfections native to the piece,
