I found this decorative porcelain vase this afternoon around 2:15pm, sitting on the stone ledge outside the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, near the main entrance on State Street. It's about 8 inches tall with a cobalt blue glaze and subtle gold flecks, clearly hand-painted. There’s a tiny chip on the rim and a faint signature 'AK 23' etched on the bottom. I figured someone might be missing a piece like this from a studio or sentimental display, so I’m putting it up here in case the owner recognizes it and wants it back. It feels special and I’d be glad to help reunite it with its owner.
