That little lantern

My first version. I've left out the candle-cup looking thingy on the handle. 5" high, in bisque. The form is thrown, incised and then carved. It occurs to me that I was using the image below on my phone to reference for making the modifications - there were some things that I really didn't see properly. Ah, well - I can make more. 
The original, from Saintonge. I'm looking for more info on this one - time period, size, etc. Photo located at http://www.photo.rmn.fr/LowRes2/TR1/NS4GY/03-000098.jpg
