What does this mean?

Dear Hunsen,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry and for your patience.

Based on these images, this is:

A finely made vintage Studio Pottery lidded porcelain jar designed and made probably in Asia (Japan or Korea) on 20th century after a raku ware design. The Western version of raku was developed in the 20th century by studio potters. Typically wares are fired at a high temperature, and after removing pieces from the kiln, the wares are placed in an open-air container filled with combustible material, which is not a traditional Raku practice in Japan. The Western process can give a great variety of colors and surface effects, making it very popular with studio and amateur potters. Throughout its 1,000-year history, potters in Japan have produced various types of potteries by adopting a wide variety of glazes and glazing techniques

No signature or artist mark.

Hello?

Awesome thank you so much, I've been very curious. It's part of a 7 piece collection. Can I submit the collection as a whole on another appraisal? What's my best bet to value these pieces? Thanks again
