An unusual Delft piece, and not sure how you would describe it. Perhaps just as a display piece or a vase type thing that you may lay some dried floweres down in, perhaps. The actual clay or china is fine and I have cleaned up the brass base which had discoloured. So you will now see some pictures of it before I cleaned the base, and what it looks like now. It is marked Holland Delft underneath on the green felt. Measures approx 240mm long x approx 125mm wide x approx 110mm high. The top needs a good wash and clean, but should come up fine. Great if you collect unusual bits of Delft or you just like it. Thanks. refN592866
