Handcrafted Safi turquoise vase signed

This large vase has wonderful colors and in particular the dominant color, a very beautiful turquoise (it is the cut out photo and the one on a black background which, on my screen, are the most faithful to the real colors). It also has beautiful lines, with a slightly flared base which gives it a well-balanced, very stable shape. It has a signature underneath as well as the mention safi which indicates its origin, it comes from the safi region in morocco known for the style and quality of its pottery for over 150 years. I cannot date it but its artisanal manufacture is undeniable. It is in good condition, no cracks or chips, the small “defects” that it may contain are original it seems to me (absence of varnish on the top and bottom edges, slight lack of enamelling on the top edge) and bear witness to this artisanal work (a few irregularities or burrs on the patterns). It measures 27 cm in height, approximately 15 cm in maximum diameter, 9 cm in diameter when opened.
