NapcoWare Japan ceramic shell- Conch planter. This is an amazing piece- when I first looked at it, I thought it was a real shell! The colors are fab- warm hues of rust- amber- and green blend beautifully to give this a truly lifelike appeal. I believe this is designed to be a planter due to the shape and opening- it has so many possibilities! I thought of a wash cloth display in a powder room or perhaps for holding napkins on a dinette. No matter...it is simply gorgeous large and in Charge!
Bottom has gold ID tag & signed C8777
