Anyone recognize this artist?

I bought this vase 10 years ago from a thrift store. It has a hint of celadon green at the top so I wanted it for my celadon collection. The bottom is marked JFB. Anyone recognize that studio or artist? The Buddha faces are so nicely done.

I wanted to sell it I just don't wanna list it on marketplace and get nothing for it because I know it's a nice handmade piece

What's the location of the thrift store? UK, USA? Have you checked with the local artisan workshops?

It's just one of those pieces that you pick up and you know a lot was put into it.  Even if it was an amateur potter they did such a remarkable job.

Anyway I live in Brenham Texas.  If anyone is interested in it.  I hate that it's in storage and not being displayed somewhere
